He has tradition ingrained in him…
She lives for the moment…
Will they find a common ground?

Lex Fitzgerald is not your average billionaire. He leads a double life as the conscientious head of his family and the pleasure-seeking rogue who parties hard and pushes the limits in and out of the bedroom. His two worlds are about to collide because of one woman, Jillian Finnegan.

Lex needs a secret weapon to defeat a competitor and finds it in Jillian Finnegan. He has no intention of letting her potty mouth, her crazy lifestyle, or her eccentric family get in his way. So when he makes her an offer, he expects her to accept. However, sparks start to fly when Jillian gives him a counteroffer and dares him to refuse. Has Lex finally met his match?

Let the seduction begin.

Lex Fitzgerald has been the leader of his family for ages. He made a promise to settle his siblings and cousins and now it’s his turn to find romance. He just didn’t expect to find love in a stuntwoman.

Lex is a man with two faces. One is the family man who is the foundation of his very close knit family and the other is a secret face that most of his family doesn’t know. He is a thrill seeking adventurer who takes life by the horns.

For the last seven years he has made sure his family is secure and well loved. He is currently finalizing his last member’s security with a business deal that unfortunately has a few snags. He needs to be a married man for a conservative foreign company to even talk to him. That is not going to stop this man of action. He has his list of potential women and is checking it twice. One look at a ridiculous woman who likes his bike more than the man, makes Lex throw that list right out the window. He has found his woman, but now he needs to convince her to be his wife for the next year.

Jillian Finnegan is a woman who misses her family. They used to be unstoppable and now she has a chance to rejoin the entertainment group, The Fearless Finnegan’s. The problem is convincing her overprotective father that she is ready to rejoin the troupe. She thinks she can get past his walls, but then overhears another problem. Now she needs money and needs it quick. Thank goodness the tall drink of water she met earlier needs her services. Now how to convince him that he should hire her for thousands of dollars a day…Piece of cake!

This is the final book in the Fitzgerald series. The series focused on members of Lex’s family finding love and security. He helps along the way and I was sad to know he was the last of this special group, but Ms. Walters did something amazing; Lex’s story will be the beginning of a new series with Lex being the end of the Fitzgerald’s and the beginning of the Infinitus Billionaire series. Can I get a HELL YES!!

I’ve wanted Lex’s book since the beginning, but had to wait years for it and it was well worth it. Jillian is spunky and fun and I love that she doesn’t’ take any of his crap. They are a perfect pair. I wasn’t sure how a stuntwoman would fit into Lex’s life, but Jillian fits like a glove. To make things even better, Ms. Walters is making Lex’s story into two books. YES, TWO BOOKS. He is has such a great story to tell that it is taking extra long and I can’t be more excited!!

Impulse has family drama, a touch of mystery, sizzling chemistry between two very likeable characters and the introduction of a group of men that will make your heart pound and your wildest dreams ignite. Ms. Walters did a wonderful job bridging these two series and while I’ll miss the family feeling of the Fitzgerald’s, I’m ready for a new sort of family. A family of men that always has each other backs, know how to play hard and have a loyalty to their group that is amazing.

Pick up this book! Especially since it's only 99 cents! It’s so much fun to read about the great and powerful Lex being brought down to his knees. Impulse has moments of laughter, shock and imaginative sex scenes that make you wish you were in Jilly’s shoes or at least Lex’s bed. This is a great beginning to what I expect to be another outstanding series by this very talented author.
