Joseph Anderson has decided it is time his three successful sons find brides. Joseph wants grandchildren to fill his huge mansion, and he wants them immediately. He was successful in his eldest son’s match, and in this book, his scheming brings Alex and Jessica together. Alex is a confirmed Bachelor who loves to travel all around the globe and romance as many women as possible. That is until he meets Jessica Sanders. One night with her and he is changing his views of bachelorhood and starting to think that married life is the new way for him. Jessica comes from a wealthy family, and has had one too many good looking men take advantage of her family's money. When she meets confirmed bachelor and known playboy Alex Anderson, she is distrustful of his flirting, and tries to avoid him at all costs. That is until they end up trapped in an elevator, and her fear of the dark, tight space is greater than her fear of the man she is trapped with. Alex comforts her by making steamy love in the elevator, and when she runs away once they are free, he walks away wanting more. One year later he finds out he is a father, and he makes sure Jessica has no other choice than to let him do the honorable thing. They have passion, romance, love and family to help guide them through the chaos.

Book 2: Dance Alex (Jessica)
Great book, easy read & yet another girly girl love story.

I fell in love with Melody Anne writing and of course fell in LOVE with the Anderson Family!!! (reminds me of my family…big & always together; just not billionaires). Less than 5 minutes into the book & you are IN LOVE with the character Joseph Anderson. Hence why I keep reading so many of the series, which you REALLY DO NOT NEED TO…. (all story lines are quite similar!!!!! ) I write about each book but tell you the ones to read & when to stop so you don’t have to waste your money$$$$$$$

The Billionaire Series: also known as Billionaire Bachelors
Book 1: Wins the game Lucas (Amy)
The book that makes you fall in love with the Andersons. Since it’s the 1st book it eatables the tone for the series. Great girly girl love story!!!

Book 2: Dance Alex (Jessica)
Great book, easy read & yet another girly girl love story.

Book 3: Falls Mark (Emily)
Another great book that was an easy read. This book #3 changes it up just alittle. Yes it was also a girly girl love story.

The next part of the series becomes about the cousins. THE TRUTH, they were fine girly girly love stories BUT YOU DO NOT NEED TO READ THEM ALL. Don’t waste YOUR MONEY!!!! Book 4 was soooo similar to Book 1.

Anderson Cousins
Book 4: Marriage Proposal Trenton (Jennifer)
Do not read unless you are super into the series. It feels like you are reading Book 1 again. Also it was super short & should not cost what it did (sooo not worth the read!!!!!)

Book 5: Blacking mailing Max (Cassie)
Not necessary to read for the series!!!! just skip to book 7. It wasn’t bad just you will save $$$$ by not reading

Book 6: Run Away Heiress Bree (Chad)
Not necessary to read for the series!!!! just skip to book 7. It wasn’t bad just you will save $$$$ by not reading

Book 7: Final Stand Austin (Kinsey)/ George (Ester)/ the Love of Joseph & Katherine
1 of the best books I have EVER read in a series!!!!! You think its just going to be like the other storylines but it is crammed with soooo much!!!!! Besides the “child’s love story” you have George & Ester AND Joseph & Katherine love story. Other authors as Kelly Elliot, sell a whole new book just for an old fashion love story.

Book 7 having 3 different stories with the price it was I keep reading into the Lost Anderson part of the series. At least book 8 isn’t like book 1 & 4!! You meet Richard Storm (Joseph & Georges lost brother )& his 5 children. Which means 5 more books…

Lost Anderson
Book 8: Unexpected Treasure Crew (Haley)
At least book 8 isn’t like book 1 & 4!! Girly Girl read
Book 9: Hidden Treasure Brielle Storm
Haven’t read yet
Book 10: Holiday Treasure Tanner Storm
Haven’t read yet
Book 11:
Book 12:

Since I’m so invested & have overall enjoyed the series, I know myself & going to finish the series!

Reading about the Anderson family is still a joy. Now I can't wait for the next book. They only have three sons, so where the other books come into play I don't know. But I can't wait to find out. Something tells me that they too will be a joy to read. What a wonderful way to spend a few hours for days to come.

This is a review from my blog: donnasthoughtsonbooks.wordpress.com
Man, I just love when a billionaire alpha fights his feelings and then falls anyway. That I what happens in this book.
Joseph (the father) wants more grandchildren and wants to see his boys settled and happy. The boys didn't want any part in settling down, but you can never estimate the power of a parent when they want something.
He set up his son Alex with an old friend of his Jessica. He knew they would be perfect for each other. When Alex went to the fundraiser to appease his father and spend a little time with Jessica so he can say he did his bidding, he never expected to have as big of an attraction to Jessica as he did. He was going to do what ever it took to get her in his bed that night.
Jessica knows that Alex is a player and is still hurt over her last relationship, aside from that he is a virgin. She wants to wait until she gets married. Well, that is what she wanted, but she has no control over herself when Alex puts on the charm. But while they were dancing she fought it with everything she had, when she had enough courage she moved away. She knew she was going to have to be on guard around him.
After the auction was over Alex headed up to his room. He had lost sight of Jessica so he decided to call it a night. Right as the door was about to close Jessica called out to stop the doors. When she noticed who was in there with her she knew she was in trouble. And after the power went out and the elevator stopped putting them in total darkness, she knew she was in trouble because she was afraid of the dark
Things got heated in the dark elevator and lets just say they made magic happen. When the power came back on she didn't want to hear what a mistake it was and ran. Alex was confused, he had just had the best connection with someone and it was an amazing experience he wanted more. But, she ran.
One year later, Joseph was having lunch with a long time friend (Jessica's dad). He told him about his new grandson. Joseph started putting things together, and told his friend he thinks the baby was his son Alex. They set up a dinner and Joseph knew from looking at the reaction Jessica had that the baby was Alex's.
He called his son home and told him about his son. Alex was so hurt and mad that Jessica kept his son from him. He told her they were going to get married because he was not going to be a part-time father. Jessica didn't like it but she went with it.
As the months went on she was falling more and more in love with Alex. And he was fighting his feelings with everything he had. When she tells him she loves him he pulls away. He feels that if they bring love into the marriage it will ruin everything.
The more he pulls away the more it hurts Jessica. When his father asked them when they were going to have another baby, and Jessica saw Alex tense up and pull away even more she knew she had to leave. She could not stay in this marriage the way it was. She wanted a real family with more babies.
When she confronts Alex he tells her that everything is fine the way it is. What he told her hurt her, and she told him she could not stay in this marriage. Since her son was already asleep she told the nanny that she would be out tonight and will see them tomorrow. When Alex came to the understanding that love would only make their marriage better, and he finally admitted to himself that he loved her, he went to find her to tell her. She was already gone. Then he got a phone call that changed everything he thought he believed.
His wife had been in an accident and was in surgery. His life stopped for a moment and he knew right then that he didn't want to live his life without her. He had one of the employees call his family while he raced to the hospital. As he waited his dad pulled him aside and talked to him and Alex told him that he had been a terrible husband but he has seen the light and was going to do everything he could to make it up to her.
Once he was in the room with his wife the Dr. told him about the baby. He didn't even know she was pregnant and he wondered if she even knew. He didn't even think she did because he knew she would tell him.
When his family comes to see them he tells them about the baby and right after that Jessica wakes up. He tells her he loves her and is so sorry and asked how she would feel if they gave their son a sibling. She agreed to get started right after she got out of the hospital. He then tells her that she is already pregnant.
They are so happy, and Mark the youngest brother is starting to feel left out even though with them he makes it out like he is happy as a clam but everyone has seen that he is faking it. Joseph has found the perfect one for him and I am ready to read the next book to find out what happens.
Thank you for reading my review and would love to hear from you.
Until Next Time: Happy Reading

It's the 2nd brother's turn to lose his batcherlorhood but he doesn't have to admit the love thing does he? It's part of this books charm to read the struggle Alex has recognising his feelings for his wife - his unexpected child has his adoration but then that child won't leave will it. Full of humour and warmth this has been a joy to read, even when you wonder why Alex can't see the wood for the trees! Can't wait to read book 3. ❤😍😘😉😏

Loved Jess & Alex's story

Reviewed in Australia on April 2, 2016

Yet another wonderful book in the series. I loved Jess & Alex's story; though it was somewhat similar to Amy and Lucas' story in that the women both fell pregnant first time around and then being "forced" to marry because of it. .... Throughout the book I felt like slapping Alex numerous times for being so stupid and was glad he came around in the end. Jess certainly was very patient. But all is well that ends well!

Good read

Reviewed in Germany on May 12, 2012

As I wrote in my recension for the first book of the series, there are some parts which don't read smoothly, but in my opinion it's better than in the first book I read.

I liked the story, although I have to say that in all the books of Anne Melody I read, I don't like the fact that the man says: "We'll marry" and although they aren't in a relationship or don't like each other (or both) the woman thinks she doesn't have a choice except to marry him.
I'd like to have a heroine with a little bit more backbone, who stands up for herself.

On a side note (not for that book in specific):
Some threats which are leading to the marriage decision are in my opinion farfetched. I'm not sure, it might be different in the USA, but in Germany a man will not get custody of a child just because the woman has to work for a living and he is a billionaire.
(I think in Germany he had to pay a lot of child support ;-) but that's another story)

Anyway back to the book:

Summary:
Jessica has had enough with men. She is the only daughter of a wealthy family and after her last breakup she thinks staying on her own might be better. Every man is only after her for her money and she has really had enough of that.
Alex is a rich playboy and a confirmed bachelor. He has no interest in relationships and the women in his life, are only to warm his bed for a night.
As his father asks him to look out for the daughter of a friend on a charity dinner, he is surprised of his own reaction and determined to have her in his bed later that night.
Jessica knows all about men like Alex and has no interest in what he has to offer. She rebukes him and flees the party as soon as it's politely possible.
Outside there is a huge thunderstorm going on and when she sprints for the closing elevator doors she is not prepared for the person who holds them for her.
No one other that Alex Anderson.
Suddenly there is an electrical blackout and they find themselves stuck in a dark, small cabin.
Jessica is afraid of the dark and soon finds herself in Alex's arms, while he is trying to calm her down.
Soon one leads to another and they have sex, suddenly the lights are back on and they get dressed just in time for the elevator opening the doors into the crowded lobby. Jessica flees into the crowd and out of Alex life, but neither of them can forget those few, but hot and passionate moments.
A year later the fathers of Jessica and Alex meet, and Jessica's tells him of the sweet child his daughter had born three month earlier. Soon they discover who's the father, which Jessica has told nobody. When Alex suddenly stands at her door, furiously demanding to see his son the problems begin...

Personally I liked the book, although some of the decisions made by the main characters are not very wise and sometimes they behave as if they were still teenagers.
I liked both of them but honestly a lot of their problems could have been solved if they would have acted a bit more like adults and talked about their problems.
But then, most problems could be solved with talking and where would be then the fun in a book?

I liked the book although not as much as the first one, even so it is linguistically better than that.
All in all 4 Stars.
