Product Description Jason Stephens lives a life of wealth. A life of privilege. A life that's about to take a radical turn. Jason always had a straightforward relationship with his billionaire grandfather, Howard "Red" Stevens. He shunned him but welcomed his money. So he figured when Red died, his part of the inheritance would be a simple cash transaction that would fund his extravagant lifestyle. Instead, for Jason to receive his inheritance, he's given an ultimatum...a series of twleve tests or "gifts" as Red calls them. If he fails at any one of them, he loses everything. If he completes them all, the ultimate gift will be his. One of those "gifts" involves finding a friend...something Jason has never experienced before. Yet this unlikely friendship and an unexpected romance may just open his eyes to what he's been missing all along. "You don't begin to live until you've lost everything." | ||

Nice, feel good piece This was a short easy to read book that left me feeling inspired. I would recommend it as a good pick me up. | ||
Great book! Great book - should be required reading for all high school students (everyone for that matter) as far as I'm concerned. | ||
Warm & Outstanding Read "The Ultimate Gift" is an absolute MUST READ book. It is filled with life events that are changed to obtain the ultimate gift. | ||
Lifes Most Important Lessons Success is a journey and nothing demonstrates this concept better than this book. Inheriting all the money in the world doesn't do anything for you if you haven't earned or achieved something yourself. | ||
Great With Special Education I am a special education teacher in a junior high school. I use the audio version of popular and classic literature in my classroom. This allows my students to experience stories that they otherwise would miss out on. The Ultimate Gift was the first book that we read this year and my students loved it. This heart warming story brings to life the transition of one young man from a spoiled brat to a caring, compassionate young adult. It is a must read for adults and students alike. | ||
