HALO was as sweet and light as its yellow and white cover. For another thing, earlier this year, I fell in love with UNEARTHLY by Cynthia Hand to the extent where I’m willing to give angel books a second chance. For one thing, one of the issues I had the first time around was the lack of all this. When the publisher mentioned that the second book in the trilogy, HADES, was darker, edgier, and grittier, I decided to give it a chance. Last year, I reviewed HALO by Alexandra Adornetto, which was full of beautiful visuals, but lacking in real punch. The story that Alexandra Adornetto built in her bestselling debut, HALO, comes alive in action-packed and unexpected ways, as angels battle demons, and the power of love is put to the test. But what he asks of her will destroy her, and quite possibly, her loved ones, as well." There, the demon Jake Thorn bargains for Beth’s release back to Earth. But even Xavier’s love, and the care of her archangel siblings, Gabriel and Ivy, can’t keep Beth from being tricked into a motorcycle ride that ends up in Hell. Falling in love was never part of her mission, but the bond between Beth and her mortal boyfriend, Xavier Woods, is undeniably strong. Bethany Church is an angel sent to Earth to keep dark forces at bay.
