Rating: 3.5 Stars
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance
Pages: 422
Published Date: Aug 2011
Bethany and Xavier are even closer since battling Jake Thorn and his evil influence and Beth and her angel silblings must still protect Venus Cove form the Dark Forces.
When a party game, a seance, inadvertenly releases Jake from the Underworld, he disguises himself and tricks Beth learns too late that she's now a prisoner in hell What happens to angels in Hell? As her archangel brother, Gabriel, her sister Ivy, Xavier and her best friend, Molly search for her, Beth must weigh Jake's bargaining for her freedom: one night with him, and she will be released back to Earth.
Can Jake be trusted in this wager? And is he also using Beth to engineer the fall of the archangel Gabriel? Xavier has already lost one love, when Jake tricks him into thinking that Bethany is dead, his grief and anger result in a betrayal that will leave Bethany wondering if he is so good after all.
It will be up to Beth to use everything she's learned about her powers as an angel and about love to gree herself and those she loves from the clutches of Hades.
I'll admit that when I began this book I didn't have high expectation. It definitely surprised me though. It was a little slow in the beginning and took me a minute to get into it, but once I did I really liked it. I grew closer to loving the characters and enjoyed Bethany in this book. She gains bravery and confidence. I liked how Adornetto portrayed Hell, and the background stories of the fallen angels. It really entertained me throughout most of the book.
Although I enjoyed the 2nd book in the series a great deal more, I still gave this book 3.5 stars. Definitely a cute book and had some fun action. I am looking forward to book 3 Heaven.
