But he just keeps showing that he’s an asshole, so I start to hate him all over again. When the book starts, I really REALLY hate Jake, but as it progresses I kind of want to love him. Gabriel is doing everything he can with the big man upstairs with Ivy right at his side and Xavier never leaves the pair, trying to help them in any way he can. And while she’s trying to find a way home, her loved ones are also doing everything they can to get her back.
I love that about her, no matter what situation she’s in, she doesn’t let her values change. Even in Hell, she stays the selfless, caring, slightly ignorant angel she’s always been. While she’s in Hell, being held against her will, all she does is think of a way to get back to her friends and family, Xavier too of course. Beth continues to be the character I fell in love with in the first book. Jake uses Beth’s unselfish caring for those that she cares about, one of the many traits I love about her, to lure Beth to Hell.
Which leads to the villain, Jake Thorn, who Gabriel and Ivy defeated in the last book, to be set loose among the population again. Molly basically guilts Beth into doing this with them, and Beth plays along because she wants to make her friend happy. Things are going perfectly fine until Beth’s friend Molly, which as I mentioned in my review of Halo is a fucking moron, decides that they should perform a seance on Halloween. Beth and Xavier are trying to have a normal relationship, or as normal as it gets in a human/angel relationship. The book starts six months after where the first ends. In the second book of the Halo Trilogy so much happens. The story that Alexandra Adornetto built in her New York Times-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.
