Six Men of Alaska #2
The Wife Protectors: Giles
Six husbands. One Wife. A secret that will tear them apart. Tia thinks running from her husbands will keep them safe -- but she never expected to have a gun in her hand, or to pull the trigger. A single bullet changes everything. The life she escaped is catching up to her, but she's not the only one at risk. Giles sacrificed everything by coming to her rescue...now he's paying the ultimate price. The Lottery brought them together, but lies threaten to tear them apart. Love may be the answer, but in this brave new world, it might not be enough. The Wife Protectors is book 2 in a six book dystopian romance series. The passion is high but the stakes are even higher. Tia and her rugged husbands are in the wilds of Alaska fighting for their lives -- and for their love.

At the end of Book #1, we read as Tia escaped when she knew that the truth about her father and the man she was engaged to would come to light and harm those six men she had started to fall for, and some of them she even has come to love. The book starts with her kidnapped by three mercenaries and then found by Giles. Giles is one of her "six husbands" and now with the men killed, they must try to make it safely back home and get their stories straight before the authorities turn up. When they get back home, there is a distrust amongst the ranks and though Tia is trying to protect them as the little they know, the better it will be as they can't be prosecuted if they don't know anything. However, the men don't see it like that - they see it as Tia not relying on them and taking the vows seriously. How can they fall in love with their wife if they can't embrace her 100%? The book ended with a surprise and an OMFG twist and a bit of a cliffhanger ending which means I can't wait to read Book #3 - Salinger's story. The other thing I loved about this book is that unlike a lot of Reverse Harem, this book doesn't focus solely on sex and sleeping with lots of men like other RH books. The Wife Protectors has a real story and you can tell each character has their demons and trying to move forward with life and build a connection with their chosen ones.

The first one was slow, but I thought it had potential. Halfway through the second book and I barely know the characters. This type of book NEEDS good character descriptions to differentiate each person and it just didn't. I barely know the main character.

This books picks where the first left off and was everything I was hoping it would be.
Giles and Tia get closer both physically and emotionally. Their love seems more true an emotionally charged than the other guys. As we read about their love story you fall more in love with our big bear Giles. This book shows us more about each of the guys and as we learn more about them our love for each of the grows.
This book like the 1st ends on a killer cliffhanger.

I liked this installment in the Six Men of Alaska series. Let me start off by saying that the writing in this book was great. I had no problems with how the author chose to write it.
My problem with this book was two things:
Tone: The tone for this book was bleak. There seemed to be a dark cloud surrounding this book. Everything that happened in it was negative and the situation that Tia and and her guys were in kept getting worse and worse. Because this book was so sad and depressing, it took away from my enjoyment of it. I couldn't even fully enjoy the "happy" moments because the mood/tone was constantly overshadowing them.
Tia: Where do I begin? I understand that she is trying to "protect" her husbands, but the choices she makes only put them in more danger. She doesn't think before she acts and 90% of the problems in this series could be resolved if she would just stop and think. It is so frustrating to see her make mistake after mistake. Tia continuously falls into the "no choice but to make a stupid choice" trope and I am getting tired of it.
Overall, I did enjoy this book, just not as much as I would have liked. I will be continuing the series, but after the next installment, I can't guarantee that I will. I need Tia to wise up because I can't take much more of this series if it continues on the path that it is on.

The first part of the book was so slow and all of the characters where very annoying. The MC tia was drowning in guilt and was blaming herself also keeping secrets. While her hubbys was brooding and angry with her cuz of her keeping secrets . I do understand them but they didn't talk at all which was annoying af. But i mean they also have secrets so why get so frikking angry at her before you know the actual truet...
I liked that we got to know them all better and i will still continue reading this series
And ofc a big fkn chliffhanger at the end...😩

MAD, MAD, MAD. That's how I felt about the book... yet I couldn't put it down.
Selfish, selfish, selfish. That's how I felt about the heroine, Tia.
And still no sex with Banks or Salinger yet. *sigh*
That CLIFFHANGER ending... With Giles being taken away... Talk about a sh*tty way to end your own book.
On to the next book in the series, The Wife Gamble. Curious to discover any secrets that Salinger may be hiding!

From wanting freedom, and being so very smart, too acting like a sex kitten and thinking to hide her true self, no freedom to be seen, things go down hill fast.

Oh my dear lord... It's here... The second book is here and I'm so happy for it.
Just one glimpse at my face and you'll see how happy I was... So so happy.
Wanna know why I was like that? Because I've read the first book from this series and after the way it ended I needed answers... And they were so close...
These two ladies know what they are doing, I mean, who would have come up with this idea and created this awesomeness? Charlie Hart and Chantel Seabrook, that's who... Their writing is intense, hot and wild, full of meaning and with a touch of suspense...
The Wife Protectors: Giles story is their latest release and it's the second book from the Six Men of Alaska.
Have you read The Wife Lottery: Fallon's story? OMG you really should because if you don't you can't understand this one.
This new book grabbed my attention in a sec mainly due to the way the first book ended. I needed to know what the hell happened so I was hoping I could get all the answers.
Giles is one of the guys who married Tia. He's a military man, with a badass atitude but with a soft heart. He had suffered the day the love of his life died. Time has passed and then he enter the lottery.
Let me just say that if I was nervous when the first book ended, now, after end f this one I'm terrified of what's about to happen...
The plot is intense, super engaging, raw and full of suspense. We have some hit stuff to light up our moods but the suspense is so high that I thought I couldn't handle it.
The interation between the characters is beautiful, intense and so hot but things are happening that will put that in jeopardy.
I'm speechless, I'm overwhelmed, I'm anxious... All at the same time.
Seriously girls? Why make me suffer like this? I want the other books... Please... Right now...
Can't wait for what's about to happen.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I read the whole book in a few hours. Each book is a cliff hanger so I wanted to find out what happened. Book 2 opens with Hypatia running from 3 mercenaries. She decided to leave her home in a misguided attempt to protect her husbands from her past. As they are driving in the truck, another truck pulls them over. It is Giles, one of her husbands. There is a fight and Hypatia grabs a gun and kills one of them. The other two take off, but later all three are found dead together. They had put a knife in Giles' tires and stole his phone and radio communications. He took her to a cabin a few miles away that was owned by Fallon. A few days later Fallon shows up. On their way back to Fallon's truck they are attacked by wolves. They only had a few bullets left in the gun. One attacked Giles and seriously hurt him. They got him back to the house, and Banks, who is a doctor fixed him up. Later an infection set in, but he didn't tell anyone. Meanwhile the other husbands are still angry at Hypatia for running away and still not telling them the truth about the secrets she is hiding. What happens to Giles? Do the authorities catch up with them? I received an ARC of this book and I am giving an honest review.

I loved this book!! 😍😍
This is Giles & Tia’s story - the story continues from the cliffhanger we finished on in book one ( can I just say Argh!!!!) Tia is running to try an save her men from discovering her secrets. Giles helps her escape from a group of mercenaries ( re; hired thugs) and almost sacrifices himself. Will Tia finally trust her men with her past? Or risk losing them forever? It’s a fast paced awesome story and I couldn’t stop reading. 10/10

Page one and already Tia is like “I should never have run. I should have trusted my men”. Gee, you don't fucking say. She's the reason I went into the second book in a negative mood. Thank God it didn't last long.
The shit has finally truly hit the fan in this one. So much has happened in such a short amount of time, you wouldn't believe it. And that ending has seriously put me on edge. What the hell was that all about? I'm so confused right now. I need more.

This is book 2 out of six and ends on a cliffhanger. A highly entertaining storyline grabs & keeps your interest. An engaging blend of romance, drama, danger, mystery. This book really raises the intensity level. Prepare for more revelations and plenty of twists and turns. I'm posting a completely honest, voluntary review after reading this book.
March 7, 2018
More! I need more asap. This series is filled with mystery, hotness and twist n turns. The Wife's Protectors picks up were book one ended. I got goosebumps while reading. I loved every second of it and I can't wait to see what happens next. Six Men of Alaska series is a must read.

I'm contemplating giving this a 1 star but decided ultimately not to because I chose to read it knowing it was a dystopia. And really that is my main problem with this book.
Forget the way this is written. Its almost sexist the book and I've read a fair few reverse harems. I can appreciate this book is different. Its pretty interesting the whole idea that women are dying and theres very few left. Instead of entertained this book just made my anxiety worse and didn't help me go to sleep like another reverse harem may have done and has done in the past.
Partly my fault because apparently this is a trigger - I was already feeling anxious yay lockdown again - but I really hoped this would distract me enough. Instead I got worried and I've decided to bin this series off. No point forcing myself to get through a series I'm not in love with.
I also wasn't impressed with the guys, they're all just meh. Fallon is annoying me like crazy, I'm curious about Banks but hes never in the story like that. Giles who this was about is just too boring, Emerson is interesting but again lacks anything and then Hux and Sal(?) are just plain yawn.
I think this book and this series may have been saved if it was less sex (god am I saying that) and a liitle more about what is going on with women. I felt like it was glossed over and ignored.

Giles is definitely one of my top ranked husbands so my expectations were let down by how his story unfolds. His potential wasn’t maximized. Also, there is no way Tia was a virgin wife!! It doesn’t add up. Speaking of Tia.. she made me so mad. I’m needing to remind myself that mistakes are important for character arcs…（。ˇ ⊖ˇ) we’ll see about the next..

Ok I’m done. Tried the first two books but there is too much unsexy sex with heavy doses of insta-love, the story is taking too long to unfold and the h is dumb as bricks.

Six Men of Alaska
by Charlie Hart (Author), Chantel Seabrook
A Post Apocalyptic, Dystopian, Reverse Harem Romance in 6 books
Titles:
The Wife Lottery: Fallon
The Wife Protectors: Giles
The Wife Gamble: Salinger
The Wife Code: Banks
The Wife Pact: Emerson
The Wife Legacy: Huxley
I love te new type of romance – the Reverse Harem, but I have loved the Post Apoc and Dystopian genres since I picked up Z for Zachariah way way way back in 8th grade. Bear in mind, the novel is very different from the horrid movie that even Netflix and Hulu want nothing to do with. The 6 Men of Alaska picks up with the current fear, driven both by the predicted outcome of China's One Child policy of the 80s and 90's and the preference for male children in India, Pakistan and China. There are more men than women. This fear actually dates as far back as Frank Herbert's The White Plague, where a madman cooks up a virus to wipe out women. Of course some women remain at the end, and he postulates that they will need to take more than one husband to save mankind.
Writers from Margaret Atwood (the Handmaid's Tale) to Sherri S Tepper (The Gate to Woman's Country) to genre master Rebecca Royce have all played with the concept.
Ms. Hart and Ms. Seabrook take the cue from wildness of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest in general to create a depressingly possible and stunningly deep world, where due to tinkering again with a virus, men have made women either infertile or unable to carry girl infants because either they, the babies or both will die in the process. We enter this world why there are more than 10 men for every woman. Alaska, separating itself from the imploding (cough cough) USA. They have declared themselves a Sanctuary (cough cough) for women. With one hitch. Young, fertile women will be put into the lottery and gain themselves not one but six husbands. Husbands they didn't choose. Tia is on the run, trying to find freedom from her past. At 21 and healthy she is put into the lottery and wins 6 amazing men. Men who have painful and even tragic pasts, who want nothing more than family.
The relationships are interesting and romantic, if not for the fact the Tia has exactly one problem resolution skill – sex with one or more of her dudes. At first, this is sweet as the virgin grows to know her husbands and how to seduce them. But the sex ends up be being a play by play of almost the exactly the same. Even with the one male character who has a Dom hidden in him. That last like 2 widely separated scene.
The struggles that they go through and the people who either help or hinder them are exceptionally well drawn as is the dark world around them.
I enjoyed the book, I really loved the mix of genres, but I just couldn't get over Tia's single way to resolve any uncomfortable emotion or any uncomfortable discussion. Even though she was basically kept locked up in way we have seen since the Bronte's, her husbands have not and they are old enough and have enough experience to sit her down and Dr. Phil her.
Please note: I received this books via Kindle Unlimited and read them pretty much all in a row like a single book, hence why they are being reviewed that way.

Oh, this series is absolutely amazing! I'm instantly enthralled every time I open this book. Tia met her six husbands in the last book as they all began their lives together, but in this one the stakes are raised and the suspense is killing me! Tia has a secret past - one that she can't reveal without putting her husbands at great risk. Despite the men's determination to protect her at all costs, she's equally determined to protect them from the evil that threatens her at every turn.
This book focuses on Giles, Fallon's best friend and perhaps the sweetest, most compassionate of her husbands. His back story is heartbreaking, and his relationship with Tia is so sweet and tender, exactly what she needs when she needs it. We also get to know more about Huxley, Emerson, Banks, and Salinger, and Tia's developing relationships with all of them. Each man is different, so each relationship grows at its own pace and affects Tia in ways she could never imagine. I already know that I'm going to have to reread this series once I'm all the way through, just to see the relationships develop again after I've gotten the full story on each of the husbands.
Most of the love scenes are MF, but both of these first two books had one MFM scene that was all about taking care of Tia. The sex is hot, of course, but they also help to demonstrate the emotional impact that Tia and her husbands have on each other. The story ends on a chilling note, leading us directly into Book 3 and Salinger's side of the story. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Real rating: 3.5
After reading book 1 with that nice cliffhanger ending, I was DYING to read book 2! The chapter sample in the back didn't help either! Luckily I only had to wait a few days, so maybe I overhyped myself, but after reading book 2, I'm feeling a bit disappointed. The writing was still good, and the story progressed... somewhat, but maybe not enough for me.
Instead of delving further into the world and characters, which we do, slightly, except for Giles, who we REALLY get to know in this book, and totally made me love him! But instead of expanding the world and working on the characters relationships, I feel like there was just a lot of sex, and though I'm fine with that, it left me feeling like there wasn't as much substance to this one as there was the first. Plus Tia's constant crying, though some of the time warranted, was getting a bit annoying. I know everything she's going through is traumatic, and sad, but instead of finding healthy ways to deal with it, she mostly just hides it from her husbands, lashes out about it, cries, or bangs one of her men. It was getting a bit repetitive, so I'm hoping book 3 will be better, and will really expand on the story aspect.

Plus Tia's constant crying, though some of the time warranted, was getting a bit annoying. I know everything she's going through is traumatic, and sad, but instead of finding healthy ways to deal with it, she mostly just hides it from her husbands, lashes out about it, cries, or bangs one of her men. It was getting a bit repetitive, so I'm hoping book 3 will be better, and will really expand on the story aspect.

This is book two of a dystopian romance, which is also a reverse harem of 6 men and 1 woman. and is a really good story containing suspense, hot sex, and a good background story of a future where women are very rare. My only complaint is - like book one it ends on a bit of a cliffhanger and it is so frustrating waiting for the next book to find out how things move along, which is part of the reason I have only given four stars instead of five but it is also due to the length as like book one it is quite short and easily read in one sitting but saying that it is still a good book. In fact, in my eyes, the only thing other than length and a non-cliffhanger ending that could have made this book better, was if it had been a paranormal romance and all the husbands had been shifters But then I do love a good Paranormal romance. But as it's not a paranormal romance, and is a contemporary reverse harem then this is a good book, which I am sure you will enjoy but if you haven't read book one then you need to, to fully understand the story and all that happens. I will certainly be looking forward to reading the next in the series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Wow and OMG I have so many unanswered question going on in my head right now. This is the second book in the six men of Alaska series by Charlie Hart and Chantelle Seabrook. What can I say. To say I was gripped to my seat wanting answers is an understatement. In book one we see Tia run off and was grabbed and chased by three men. The continuation we see Tia run away from them and get caught and put into their truck. Giles is there to rescue her and takes her to Fallon's cabin where they spend sometime and we learn Giles is a virgin. Fallon comes to the cabin and takes them back to the car. On the way Giles gets hurt by a wolf.
What follows is the anger running off the men as they deal with Tia's running away and Giles injury. Thinks take a turn and he nearly dies. But OMG does Salinger's dad come into his own when he takes Giles away. I so need to know what has happened to him and Tia is off on her way to meet Salinger's mom. I really can't wait for book three to find what happens to Giles etc. There is just something about Salinger that sets me on edge. I voluntarily reviewed this book as an advanced reader copy.

This book picked up right where the first book left off Tia is trying to protect her husband and decides to run and she is being chased by three mercenaires, lets not forget Women are in short supply so these guys are gross and thugs, not good guys. Tia does end up being rescued by her husband Giles, but she does make a mistake or more of a life decision to protect her husband, that will change everything. I love that each husband is getting a book ,they are again all so different, all will do anything to protect her. Giles is the most protective , I loved him, he reminds me of a red haired teddy bear, He make Tia feel so comfortable , and cherished, all the feels. Giles seriously blew me away with his sacrifice. Please let him be okay. We also learn a little more about Tia and her past .We do get to see more of the husbands and the're are two that are still a little subdued, laid back, that we see show a bit more emotion in this book . I can't wait for the next one I have so many more questions and I can't wait to read what the other husbands are thinking.

This book picks up right where the first one ended so I would highly recommend you read it first. After the ending on book 1 I was hooked and couldn't wait for Giles' story. This book kept me on the edge of my seat and glued to my Kindle anticipating what would happen next.
The action, twists and turns this book took made for quite the entertaining and emotional read. I loved the character development in this book. The friendship between Fallon and Giles and their history was heartbreaking. Giles is the most compassionate of all of Tia's husbands and strives to give her exactly what she needs. Though each of the men are different in their own way their relationships with Tia all begin to develop more. When Tia makes a mistake that jeopardizes her family her husbands are determined to protect her no matter what.
This book answered some of the questions I was left with after the cliffhanger ending in Book 1 but now I have so many more. I'm officially addicted to this series!! I can't wait for book 3 to learn what happens next in this captivating series!

Giles picks up where Fallon left off. Tia in her misguided belief she was protecting her husbands has put them all in danger. Tensions in the house are running high. Tia refuses to tell them who she really is. In an effort to protect her, Giles confesses to her crime. Taken by the Director, he learns that things are far worse then they suspected, but has no way to warn his family. Now Tia and Salanger have been taken and Sal is scared.
Tia is hard to like in this book, she seems a weak and spoiled child, but as things unfold and more of her truth is revealed, you see she so strong. That plausible deniability may be the only thing that could keep her husband's safe.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. While I'm not a fan of serial type stories, especially when they end in cliffhangers, I like the authors, and am really liking this series. Can't wait for Salinger.

This book is a continuation of the first book in the series. I found it to be interesting and it does continue from where book 1 left off. Giles and Tia get closer both physically and emotionally. You can feel the emotions that flow off from them thru the book more so compared to Tia and the other men. There are many twists and turns in this book, action and danger that takes place. I don’t want to give too much away because this is a book that you need to read to experience all that takes place. The book ends on an epic cliffhanger where one of Tia’s men may not make it out alive. And still Tia is hiding her secrets from her men. What is she hiding? Hopefully all will come out in book 3. This is a good paranormal romance read and I look forward to reading the next installment.
