The Lost Andersons #5
Ultimativno blago
Alexa Mills izabrana je za sudjelovanje na humanitarnom putovanju na Filipine. Uzbuđena je zbog putovanja svog života, ali sve će se promijeniti kada se u avionu nađe s Lanceom Stormom, muškarcem s kojim je provela noć na vjenčanju svoje sestre za Ashtona Storma.
Lance i Alexa provest će zajedno mjesec dana u nepoznatoj zemlji, a za nju će to biti pravo iskušenje. Boriti se protiv očite privlačnosti prema tom muškarcu ili se prepustiti strastima? Odrastajući uz loš primjer nasilnog oca i nemoćnu majku, Lexie zna koliko loše mogu završiti brakovi. Po povratku kući, Lance ju zamoli da provede Božićne praznike s njegovom obitelji. Objašnjava joj da će se, budu li se pretvarali da su par, možda napokon svi prestati miješati u njegov ljubavni život.
Hoće li Lexie zaboraviti da je njihova veza samo puka gluma kada ju obitelji Anderson i Storm dočekaju raširenih ruku? Hoće li se i dalje voditi vlastitim strahovima i pobjeći od svega jednom kada se tjedan iz snova približi svome kraju?

I can't believe this was the 12th Anderson book. I enjoyed this book even more than the other's as there was a bit of a reminder at the end of the other book's.
I look forward to reading the other book's Joesph Anderson and family turn up in 😊

I think this is by far my favorite series from Melody Anne. It's sad that this is the last book of the series but I'm glad that Joseph will continue to appear on other books. A must read!!!!

I did not expect much from this, since I have read others in the Anderson Billionaire series by this author. But really? Those are hours I will never get back. Can a simpering insecure woman ogling the hot billionaire get any more cliche? The author adds the sap of working together in post-hurricane (probably should be “monsoon”) Philippines, but that just gives an excuse to put the two in close living quarters.
Just read the plot summary and invent the most unimaginative plot you can, and you won’t be far from the book. But you won’t have wasted as many hours as I did.
More than one star because the grammar and proofreading are not sloppy enough to justify a single star.

Great conclusion to this series. Hard to believe that there has been 12 books and that Joseph Anderson and his matchmaking ways are over, at least in this series. Knowing this author, he will turn up again. He's such a charismatic character.

Lance and Lexi had a one-night stand after Lexi's sister got married to an Anderson.
Lance is the last one not married and Joseph and his meddling brothers play matchmaker.
The chemistry is already there between them, but will Lexi give in? Her one male role model was the kind you do not want and she really has no faith in men or that there are any good guys out there. She believes they all hide their true selves.
Will Lance be able to convince Lexi he truly is a good guy?
Will Joseph and his meddling brothers succeed at their attempt of matchmaking?
This is a great Christmas read.
I received an ARC for an honest review.

The last book on the series of the Lost Andersons, Lance Storm did everything he can to avoid ending up like his brothers and cousins (happily married). Lance then had made a plan with Lexie, younger sister of his sister-in-law Savvy, who is afraid of commitment and marriage.
It’s a nice book, a good way to the end the series. Still nice knowing what’s happening with other couples. I still love the three meddling fathers. I enjoyed the series and the Anderson’s and the Storm’s. Gotta love Melody Anne for making these series and giving is the these wonderful stories..
*Thanks for featuring the Philippines 😉

Was not as predictable as the other books I have read by Melody Anne so it was a nice surprise

Once again, Ms Anne reminds us what a talented author she is.
I have read some of her other books, and this is the only Lost Anderson book I have gotten my hands on. That said, know it’s a stand alone and you will have no problem following the story.
In this one we have Lance , and Lexie. They had a one night stand at Lexie’s sister wedding and neither has forgotten that night. Certainly not Lance, who since then , has not been with another woman. He sees possibilities with her, while she is afraid of commitment and marriage. Her father was an abuser , and she fears the worse.
Lance’s father and uncles have been anxious to get grandchildren, and have orchestrated an opportunity for these two to get together. The start is a month long humanitarian trip to the Philippines which Lance’s company is funding. Imagine Lexis’s surprise when she realizes it’s Lance who sponsored her trip, and that she will spend a month with him.
Needless to say, true to Ms Anne’s talent, the story , the main characters and of course, the rest of the Storm- Anderson clan, make this another winner for the author.
Kudos Ms Anne.
I was gifted this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

I loved this book couldn't put it down. Alexa Mills is Savannah's younger sister who is married to Lance's brother Ashton Storm. On Ashton & Savannah's wedding day Lance and Lexie got together for one steamy night, but after that night Lexie avoided Lance. One year later Lance Storm is the last one not married, but now he finds himself sitting infront of his father Richard and his two uncles Joseph and George, the three men want to help Lance with Lexie. Lexie loved to volunteer to help the less fortunate so when she got a call to go help for one month in the Phillipines after the tsunami she jumped at the opportunity, but when the plane was in the aire she new immediately who was standing behind her before he even said anything. Lance tried everything to be with her, but she just couldn't allow herself to get too close. On their way home Lance asked Lexie for a favor to be his girlfriend for the next week to keep his family off his back during the holidays, but afte spending so much time together she couldn't help falling for him, but she was also afraid that he didn't feel the same.

Yet another Storm goes down!
This book is The Ultimate Treasure, book 12 of the Anderson's series, written by Melody Anne. We can't seem to get away from the meddling fathers, George, Joseph and Richard. In this story we are watching Lance Storm try to keep from following all of his brothers and cousins down the aisle of matrimony. He is definitely digging his feet in and kicking and screaming up a Storm (see what I did there...😉) to keep from falling for their tricks. Lance changes his tune fairly quickly when he comes fave to face with Lexie, younger sister of his sister-in-law Savvy. Every book in this series is unique and well thought out with strong characters and quite a few quirky little moments. You won't be able to stop smiling or sniffling, depending on what part of the book you are reading. Come get swept away into the worlds of the Anderson's and the Storm's. You won't be sorry!

Enjoyable read. The last Anderson/Storm sibling left single is the object of Joseph, George & Richard's attention. They finagle a way to get Lance & Lexi together again so the embers started a yr ago will turn into full fledged flames. Offering Lexi an opportunity to help rebuild a devastated area is the perfect way to get back into the woman's life that he hasn't been able to forget. What neither knew though was that being in close quarters for a month was definitely going to play with their ability to keep focused on the project. One is moving forward & one is trying to move away. But a plea for help from Lance at Christmas time breaks down the barrier Lexi has around her heart & allows to realize she can have the dream she never thought she wanted. Definitely recommend this book and the series as well.

Lance Storm is the last man standing. Out of his huge family he's the last single guy and he's ready for that to change. Convincing Lexi Mills to really give him a chance hasn't been so easy though so for once, he calls in the meddling trio and gets them to help him set up a dream trip for her. Humanitarian work is something she's passionate about so when she's sponsored for a month long trip to the Philippines to aid the typhoon victims she can't say no. Little does she know that Lance's family is her benefactor or that Lance himself will be going along with her.
This is a great story that I thoroughly enjoyed. I definitely recommend it for everyone.

What an ending!!!
This story was a perfect ending to the series. I enjoyed all 12 Anderson/Storm stories. I cried, laughed, and even felt anger at some of the men who were being a little rough around the edges. But, all in all I enjoyed reading them. I'm still wondering whatever happened to the lady carrying the baby who showed up at Joseph's home and disappeared the next morning. I definitely recommend you read the Anderson/Storm series before reading about the Armstrong brothers in Billionaire Aviators, which I have already read. I think you won't be disappointed. Happy reading.

I have been anxiously awaiting Lance's story. He was so strong, loving, and patient with Lexie. His confidence kept knocking down her walls for her to finally see/believe that the good guys still do exist despite what she was shown growing up with an abusive father. Laughed out loud at times all the while knowing this was the last Anderson/Storm family story. So in love with this family will be re-reading many times to come. Fantastic job by Melody Anne.

Another great book by M.A.. In this one the last Storm bachelor is being set up by his father amd uncles with a woman he has been chasing for a year so he takes the bait and goes along with them. Lexie didnt know that Lance will be the billionaire behind the relief effort to help those who are in need, but as she sits down in a comfy jet chair ready for the trip , she is stunned as Lance joins her on the jet.
The story unfolds and has bunch of twists to keep the reader on the edge of the seat.

The ultimate Hold out
Yes indeed Lexi and Lance's story was worthy of a grand Storm Anderson Meddeling from The three wealthy patriarchs of their family to ensure a spectacular romance just as worthy of any of their own romances. Now I look forward to the next series with Mark Anderson's good friend, Cooper and his angry brother's who are not happy with their fathers will. The Anderson's are in this new story as well!

Great series.
I’ve loved each book in this series. This is the final one and I loved getting updates on the whole family. Lexie sure fought her feelings for Lance, how can he get her to commit to him. Well, it’s sure was hard plus the fact that she fell for his family too. After all, her sister is happily married with one of his brothers. I highly recommend reading all the books in this series. Definitely worth re reading too.

I´ve read the complete series and this last one is as perfect as the others. Lance is the last bachelor of the family and he found his soul mate in Lexie. This book not only has an amazing story for Lance, but also the writer added a detailed closure for each character of the Anderson / Storm families. I will miss Joseph and brothers!!

The Ultimate Treasure...
The final Anderson book. It was fanfreakingtastic. This was Lance's story. He finds love but the battle for that love was dramatic and angst filled. The most passionate of the the lost Anderson clan. The Storm men are Anderson but they had a oh hell yes all the time.

The last of the Anderson/Storm children, Lexi and Lance’s story is heartwarming.
Melody Anne has kept me happy and engaged in all 12 books. Although each can be read separately, I highly recommend reading each and every one. Such joy, protectiveness and love is in each book. The storylines vary but each has all the feels.
An outstanding book to end the series.

Perfect Christmas
The book was a perfect story for the last single nephew. I love the Anderson's and Storm's. Power family with hearts of gold. So much love to share and not afraid to give back. Lance finally finds his way past Lexis walls and into her heart. The Christmas dinner is one that the series was made for. Excellent book and series!

Treasure Hunting
Lance met Alexis during while his brother was struggling to get together with her sister. After a one night stand that left a lasting impression on both of them, Alexis ran like the fires of hell were chasing her. Alexis’ absolute inability to connect until the last few chapters was just disappointing.

Disappointing
This book was pretty boring and a sad end to this series. Lexie comes across as a pathetic woman whereas in the previous book she appeared to have some backbone we never really get an explanation of what Lance achieved as part of his father's challenge and he comes across as a bit of a sad sap who can't get his woman. Not the best book in this series.

another great read
What can I say about the final book in the Anderson series other than fantastic. I loved Lance and Lexie’s story. She kept on fighting the inevitable because she thought that she didn’t deserve it, but slowly she couldn’t help but fall in love with Lance because he wouldn’t let her miss out on a life that she deserved to have.

loved Lance and Lexie's story. It fits perfectly in the Christmas romance genre--hope, kindness, generosity, family and love. It was a beautiful end to The Lost Anderson series. I don't think I will ever get enough of matchmaker Joseph and the rest of the Anderson family.
