Sunni Matthews and Ray Bartlett are two young adults in love. Since their parents don't approve of the match, they often meet in secret to fulfill their lust. On one of these occasions, a very large dog with pewter colored eyes tracks Ray to a cabin. After Ray and Sunni come together, the dog breaks its way through the door, killing Ray but only biting Sunni.

A century later, Sunni, now a werewolf, is still mourning the loss of Ray. The alpha that changed her, Vall is a vicious and cruel leader and one that Sunni gladly watches die. She has recently escaped that clan and has started a new life in Chicago. In this present day, supernaturals have been discovered by humans, but the secret has been contained. The government has set up a covet operation, PTF or Paranormal Task Force. They are trained to hunt and kill supernaturals.

By a twist of fate, Sunni picks up the scent of Ray, and she is shocked. She believes in reincarnation, but can't quite believe her eyes, or her nose, when she picks up the scent of Ray on a man named Kane. She starts hanging out at Risque, a club where she first smelled his scent.

Kane comes to Risque for one thing - sex - and Sunni, reveling in the idea that this is actually Ray is more than willing to give it to him. But this sex will not be so simple. Kane turns out to be on the PTF. Sunni is positive Kane and Ray are the same person and wants to make things work with him. When news of a rogue werewolf hits town, Sunni and Kane must put their presumptions behind them to move forward.


Impulsive is a quick steamy read that I enjoyed. The full title of the book is Impulsive: An Eternal Pleasure Novel so I knew going in that there would be an erotic flair, and Cathryn Fox definitely does not disappoint. First, I like the twist that supernaturals have been discovered, but not by the general population. For Sunni, she not only has to worry about being hunted by the PTF, but in her case a rogue werewolf is also hunting her. She has it coming from both sides. Since Sunni fled her pack, she is truly alone.

Kane has also sequestered himself, because he is a hunter and he fears if he keeps in close contact with is family, the wolves would harm his family to get to him. It is not a huge stretch for him to seek out and evenutally trust Sunni. Even though his brain recoils at the thought of reincarnation, his instincts don't. Deep down he knows her, and that helps him overcome his speculations.

With a light BDSM theme, the sex scenes in this book are very hot. At times, Kane acts more like a wolf, in his ever pressing need to have sex rather than a human. I also would have liked to have more page time devoted to the villain, the rogue wolf. I kind of feel like the violence and intrigue of the rogue got left behind a bit.

Cathryn Fox is a new to me author, but I will definitely be checking her out again. Impulsive is a fast paced, steamy paranormal romance.


Rating: 3.5/5

Thoughts
This is the second book in this series. Instinctive, Impulsive and then Indulgent 1/11. I suppose you could read them individually, but there are characters and situations carried over from the first. The pace is fast kept my interest. The book was over before I knew it. I liked Sunray from the first one to this one, it was great to see her reunited with Ray. The character development was evident. Their connection and love is an unstoppable thing. Highly recommended paranormal erotica

reading this currently and its great so far fox is one of my favorite reads cant get enough! shipping was remarkeable and condition was excelllent!!!this is a must read series if you like paranormal and shifters and witches.

Picks up where INSTINCTIVE left off and takes off running! Another exciting story that will keep you on the edge of your seat and not turning pages often enough! It's thrilling, romantic, and hot!

Sunni is a great character, strong, honest, and committed to doing the right thing. We don't get exact details of her life over the past hundred years, but we do know that she remained faithful in her heart to Ray. That shows us the depth of her emotional commitment to him and their relationship. Even though Kane doesn't believe he is her reincarnated Ray, he still can't help the intense feelings she invokes in him. The author does a fantastic job with describing their intense passion for each other. The reader will feel their emotions as if they are their own. Their conflict is so believable that you are drawn into the story and will not want to stop reading until the very end. Which brings me to my only negative comment on this book ­ I was disappointed in some of the informatiion in the epilogue. I can't say more because I don't want to give away the ending but rest assured this is an erotic romance. Impulsive is passionate, intense, and a thrilling love story that proves love and pleasure are eternal! - Lisa Freeman

Sunray accompanied by other shapeshifters wanting to be free wolves moves from her Alpha and the pack in Serene, New Hampshire to Chicago. They settle near where she was viciously assaulted and changed while her lover Ray was murdered one hundred years ago.

Ray has returned having been reincarnated as Kane. When they meet, Sunray knows he is her soulmate. However she also realizes they cannot be united as fate proves cruel since he is a lycan hunter who thrives on killing her kind. Still they team up to end the deadly spree of a rogue shifter, but though he wants her, he cannot get pass the concept that she a member of a species his Instinctive impulsiveness loathes.

The latest Eternal Pleasure shapeshifter romance is a terrific reincarnation second chance at love erotic thriller. The lead couple is a creative pairing as they have a tragic history and apparently an even more tragic future once the case is over. Filled with suspense, readers will appreciate the dangerous Chicago joy ride between Sunray and Kane as love seems not enough to prevent the hunter stalking the she-Lycan.

Book 2 in the Eternal Pleasure Series, Impulsive takes the series up a notch!

I've been waiting for this book to come out since I first caught a glimpse of the hero, Kane, in book one - Instinctive. Kane, so delicious and demanding is the perfect foil for implusive heroine Sunni. In a world where danger lurks around every corner and with Sunni being hunted from several directions, a man like Kane is a definite asset and she is no fool. The attraction between them sizzles and the truth is difficult for them both to accept - Kane is her long lost, reborn love.

The love story between the characters supports some wickedly hot sex and is emphasised by the danger they must face together.

Loved this book, and Cathryn Fox is now a favorite author!

I am normally a reader of historical romance, but every once in a while, I like to venture into edgier territory, so last night I curled up on the sofa with IMPULSIVE and simply could not stop reading. I was up half the night.

What I loved about this book (besides the sex scenes, which were super hot and exactly what I was looking for in an erotic read) was the emotional depth and tenderness of the romance. There were moments when my heart was aching for these characters, who had loved each other in a past life before they were tragically torn apart. I love an angsty book, and this one delivered in spades from the very first chapter. Cathryn Fox truly has a gift for weaving the eroticism with a very deep emotional element.

She also has a gift for pacing. As I said before, I was up half the night because at no point did the story slow down. Every page flowed smoothly to the next (though there were certain passages that I had to stop and read twice, just because I admired the writing). I was completely transported into Fox's story world, and I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an exciting and satisfying erotic reading experience.
