4.5 perfect stars

Remedy is the last installment in the Return to Us trilogy and what a ride this trilogy was. I mean, it was so fantastic to read and I got really to experience the relationship between Jacade and Ivy which was the main essence of the trilogy. After the cliffhanger in Rectify, I was excited reading Remedy because I wanted all my quesrions answered. M.K. Gilher once again nailed it.

Remedy is truly a captivating story. I actually took a long time reading it than the other two because I want to savor it because since it is the last book in the trilogy, it was so special to me. It was also bittersweet to me because the story lived through me and I am going to miss it. You know that feeling when you read a book for so long and there comes a time when the story has to end and you just do not want it to end anymore, thats what I got when I read Remedy. I just did not want it to end at all. As usual Remedy has hot action and scene that had me on the edge of my seat. The hot scenes were so hot that I was fanning myself. M.K. Gilher again truly wrote an amazing book that was so totalky memorable to me. I was in awe. Every sentence soaked into me and every emotion poured out allowing me to just get lost in the book. I loved that.

Holy Smokes, Jacade was absolutely one of my favourite alpha heroes. I mean, everything about him was so amazing. Lol. I loved him. His dirty mouth, his possessive side and his sweet side were so mindblowing to me. He was the perfect alpha male. Ivy was incredible. I loved her badass abd sassy side but it was also allowing to see her emotional side that made here so awesome. I loved this characters throughout all the three books and I am going to miss them so much. I loved these two characters a lot. They brought so much dynamic attributes to the whole trilogy and i thank M.K. Gilher for creating these two characterd.

Remedy was surely the best ending to the trilogy and proved to be one of my favourite books of 2016. It was the perfect final installment to this epic story and truly a memorable story.

"He knew you were out of his league, and he insulted you to make you think you couldn't do better. You're looking at better, babe." <-- I just LOVE Dr. Jordan

Oh. My. God. Jacade is the absolute best. Hands down one of the most suspenseful and COMPLETE final installment I've ever read. Yes, I would love to get more Ivy and Jacade...but I also feel content with where the story ended.

Jacade-
If it comes down to me or her I'd save her, no hesitation. I've loved her since I was 18. With so many moves being made I can't trust anyone to keep her safe. They say if you want something done right you have to do it yourself. Make no mistake that I'm the only one capable of keeping my Ivy safe. But when you're dealing with a woman as stubborn as Ivy sometimes you have to bend the rules.

Ivy-
I fell in love with him outside of a police station 18 years ago. He thinks I need protecting- to be locked away from the danger that surrounds us- like some Princess out of some misguided fairytale. Only problem is I don't need to wait for some Knight in shinning armor to slay Dragons for me. Nope. I need him to hand me a gun and tell me who to shoot. Being saved is overrated. That is unless it's the panty melting Dr. Jordan doing the saving...in that case a girl might get used to being the damsel in distress.

Jacade is back. Bigger and badder than ever! He's back to claim his woman and their destiny! I pity the poor soul who stands in their way!

In the conclusion of the Return to Us trilogy, the drama is at an all time high! The betrayal. The recourse. The tragedy. Every question from the previous two books will be answered. Jacade is still the number one alpha and as he takes his rightful place among the ranks, those closest to him are not supportive or happy.

Gilher does an awesome job keeping us as reader, on the edge of our seat. But don't get comfortable because when you least expect it, a WTF moment sneaks up on you and destroy everything you thought you knew! The shockingly delicious betrayals in this conclusion are what movies are made of....literally!

Read the trilogy for a first class ticket to Dramaville! Mafia, intrigue, murder, you name it, it's in here!

4.5 stars!

Another clean up on aisle Tabitha, please! The ladies made a mistake and put me with Dr. Kelch instead of Jacade. I hate it when that happens.
Gah, I love Dr. Jordan. Ivy's sense of humor and badassness is why I can't help but love her too. Remedy is the final installment of the Return to Us Trilogy. We learn how Jacade entered the organization during the prologue. Chapter one begins with finding out Ivy's fate after taking a bullet from that sadistic fuck, Viktor. Every single chapter is full of Jordan HAWTNESS, secrets being revealed and quite a few shockers (like "oh my shit" kind of shockers).
Favorite Ivy quote: "You just flicked by bitch switch, asshole."
Sad to see this one end but I'm sooo looking forward to Missionary (Shane's story).

Remedy was the pièce de résistance of the series and it made me totally lose my sh*t. I read it in less than 24 hours and I literally could not put it down.

It was the kind of book that made me want to simultaneously kiss and slap the author for some of the plot twists, character reveals, and unexpected scenes that steadily arose throughout this book. Once again, I thought I knew what to expect based on the groundwork that had been laid in the previous installment. Once again, I was totally surprised.

Whereas, in Rectify (the second book), you are learning facts and backstory that many other characters know, in Remedy (this final book), the plot is unfolding for you at the same time it is for the characters themselves. Some hilarious moments arise when characters find out about jaw-dropping twists at the same time as you, the reader. I loved watching certain characters have freak-out/WTF moments over some of these reveals.

At the same time as this was the most fun and action-packed, it was also the tenderest and most touching in terms of character depth. This installment tests the character of every single player, and gets to the heart of who everybody really is. It turns out that MK Gilher will expand the stories of some of the most compelling secondary characters in separate series, which I am very excited about!

Finally, I can't close a review of this series without talking about some of the beautiful and truly poetic writing that can be seen in certain parts. I found myself highlighting a number of passages that I loved.

EPIC CONCLUSION TO A SUPERB SERIES......

It was with much regret that I finally turned the last page and closed my book on this epic series. M.K. Gilher, I simply cannot believe that this is the first series that you have ever wrtten. It was absolutely BRILLIANT!!!! From the first page of Book 1, Revival, to the last page of this book I was totally spellbound. I really didn't want it to finish....but alas all good things must come to an end.

Like Book 2, Rectify, this one commences 18 years prior - it tells how Jacade made a deal to stay away from Ivy, to further his own life, a decision he regrets instantly. Fast forward 18 years and we are back to present day and reading about the cliffhanger of Book 2. Such is the magnificent way in which M.K. mixes the past and the present to tell her magical story of Jacade Jordan and Ivy Summers.

The twists and turns that M.K. throws into this book, in fact the entire series, are what makes this series unforgettable. You never know where she is going to take you next, that is where the true magic for me existed when I read this book.

Yes, Jacade and Ivy are madly in love, extremely protective but they are also a couple that are trying to find their feet together. They are trying to live their lives like any other ordinary couple, if you can call them ordinary, when you look at what happens around them - Council rules, betrayal by loved ones, friends who may as well be enemies and of course falling in love.

The introduction of Jett, Jacade's brother, as a major player in this book, brought in a bit of light hearted humour - his interactions with both Jacade and Ivy were thoroughly enjoyable. Then there is the budding (if not different) relationship between Shane and Bryn - it will be interesting to see where M.K. takes that one in her next book.

This would have to be the BEST SERIES that I have read this year. Murder, betrayal, secrets, truth, friendship and love are all found within this book and this series. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a bit of everything in their reading. It is a thrilling ride to witness and one that I will continually return to whenever I am in a book funk.

Thank you M.K. Gilher for giving the literary world such an exceptional series with characters that the reader can fall in love with and dislike.

FIVE TOTALLY MAGNIFICENT STARS from this totally addicted reader.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
This is the last book in the series and I'm sad because I want more of Ivy and Jacade. Ok Jacade is a fucking boss and he is going in guns blazing in this book. Ivy is boss to she has found out the things that nobody wanted to tell her. There relationship is stronger and Dom Jordan comes out a lot and Ivy is fine with it. You get to find out about Jett OMG please let there be a story about him he is a hot sexy alpha Dr and Jacades older brother and a force to be wrecking with. Let's not forget about Shane there has got to be story about him I mean come on he is tall dark and mysterious. All of the question that had you pulling your hair out in the first two books are answered. The twists and turns that come at you will have you screaming and yelling at your IPad. I mean you think you have the answer before she reveals them you don't you will never see theses coming your way. Ivy is still funny and have come to love her scars and Jacade is still on a level all by himself. As much as I don't want this story to be over it is and it's a great end to Ivy and Jacade.

REMEDY is fantastically written. There are so many things this book teaches us. You have to read it for yourself to find out. This book is a constant roller coaster of emotions. It will either make you giggle, get teary, sigh with pure bliss or get angry.
This was the perfect summary of the entire series and gives you an even bigger look into Jacade and Ivy's lives.

One of my favorite lines from REMEDY is "Don't let fear debilitate you. Let it surge through your veins and force you to fight like a f*cking warrior every f*cking day." - Jacade Jordan

I couldn't put this book down, and I savored every minute of it. Ivy has come so far and she never lost her fighting spirit. She is a woman that knows what she wants and won't stop till she gets there. Jacade know when to let her take the lead, but still be in control. He protects her till the end. I loved getting to know more about Jacade and where he came from. He will always been the dominant man he has always been.

"Searching for a contact lense or something?" - Jacade Jordan

My heart is just so full after finishing this book. I truly love Jacade and Ivy. The more time I spent with them the more I fell for them. They have been through so much in their lives but somehow always managed to cross paths. Was it fate or Jacade's never ending love he had for his one true soulmate.

This story had so many surprises that just kept popping up when you least expected it.

This is my 3rd book by MK Gilher. I was fortunate enough to get this series and read them back to back. I am truly amazed at the growth this writer has shown through these 3 books. From 1 into 2 you can see how much she's grown but to read the third book she's truly fine tuned her stories and polished them but her storyline just goes deeper and deeper. She's truly amazed me with this series.

I personally can't wait for more from this author. I'm a huge fan of Shane's and adore the military/romance genre as much as Mafia! Now if she makes Jett a rockstar/Dr, I will definitely worship at her feet!!

Have you ever gotten so wrapped up in a series, when it came time to review, you couldn't tell where one finished & the next one began? That just happened to me.
So my review for Rectify & Remedy will be the same, sorry MK!
Oh. My. Gosh.
Ivy & Jacade took on this absolutely crazy journey, with a side of psycho.
They seriously blew past every single expectation I had.
Like holy moly. & Ivy's secret Identity? Say what? That still is crazy to me.
I don't really know how to review these without giving anything away...& I seriously hate spoilers, they've ruined so many books for me.
So if you're reading these reviews trying to decide if this is the book for you, then I say, yes it is!
It's Dirty, Fun, & Keeps you on the edge if your seat wanting more and more.
It will probably shatter your heart slowly, only to stitch it back together piece by piece.
Such an amazing trilogy! If you haven't already, grab book one, and dig in.
It is truly worth it.

Wow... I freaking loved this series

I finished with the first two where we find out that Jacade has known Ivy longer then she realizes. Her uncle, aunt, Jacade, and several other characters have known each other and are all part of the mafia. Secrets were revealed, lies were told, and in the end Ivy and Jacade relationship was put to the test. When she storms in to save Jacade, we were left wondering what was to come and the author delivered it effortlessly in the third installment.

Book 3 has just as many secrets revealed as book 2. Things you weren't expecting, and twists you don't see coming.... and through it all Jacade and Ivy sizzle through the pages even with every hit that they take. Their love is strong, the sex is hot. The author has definitely kept me glued to the pages from the first page to the last. I can't wait to see what else she has in store for us :)

Another brilliant book, by a brilliant author.

The 3rd instalment of the Return to Us Trilogy was on the top for my list for most looking forward to reading of 2016. And fortunately in came early.

Throughout the two books, we followed the story of Jacade and Ivy. Their stories continues in Remedy and sucks you in from the very beginning.

Drawn into a world of betrayals, loyalty, murder, and love. Fate has a way of finding the happy ending.

The combination of their past and the history of their story allows the reader to understand the love they share and the loyalty they have for each other.

Kick ass scenes that cause heads to roll, hot alpha males and one kick ass female make this book and series one of my favourites.

Hooked from page one of book 1

I loved this series from the first page of the first book. Jacade and Ivy's story will stay with me forever. Not just because Jacade is hott as Sin with a capital S, but because a love like he has for Ivy is life changing. Once in a lifetime thing. The things he done to prepare for a life with her and protect her are amazing...mind blowing. For someone to love like that...wow..no other words. Add that with the story line and you have one hell of a story. Not to mention wet panties. I laughed and cried and was mad as hell at times....but so worth it. This series will go in my file of books to re-read! Can NOT wait for Shane to tell us his story and secrets!

Okay. Wow. Just wow. Okay, so this is the third and final book in the series. While MK Gilher told us which character we were seeing at the beginning of each chapter it was totally not necessary. The way she wrote them it was easy to tell if we were reading Jacade or Ivy.

The growth of the characters through the series is an amazing ride. The secrets we learn are so far out there but are written to be totally believable.

I am very glad that I went on this journey and read these books. And the sex scenes are beyond hawt. I really hope we get future stories from some of the folks we met through this series.

And thank you to MK Gilher for the gift of your books.

This book is a fantastic finish to Ivy and Dr Jordan's story. Just like the Revival and Rectify this book is full of action, twist and sexy as hell but this book also provides alot of the puzzle pieces to Ivy and Dr Jordans story. I love this series and cannot wait to read more of M.K Gihlers books. Oh and cant forget to mention Jett ❤...... Damn this book left me with some naughty thoughts about two very hot brothers!

"Not unless it's a No Diddling Alone agreement."

I love this couple. It took them almost 20 years to get together but they did it. The ending was perfect. Can't wait for Shane's and Jett's stories. Steam factor 8 stars. I received a free copy for an honest review.

Enjoyed it, but too many characters to keep track of and some even have nicknames which IMO made it even more difficult. But a neatly tied up story with a couple of interesting surprises thrown in. Overall a good ending to Ivy and Dr. J's story.
