Sobre aquest llibre
Forbidden love won’t stop a young couple from marrying but evil forces might in this paranormal romance from a New York Times–bestselling author.
Bethany, an angel sent to Earth, and her mortal boyfriend, Xavier, have been to Hell and back. But now their love will be put to its highest test yet, as they defy Heavenly law and marry. They don’t tell Beth’s archangel siblings, Gabriel and Ivy, but the angels know soon enough, and punishment comes in a terrifying form: the Sevens, who are rogue angels bent on keeping Beth and Xavier apart, destroying Gabriel and Ivy, and darkening angelic power in the heavens.
The only way Bethany and Xavier can elude the Sevens is to hide in the open, and blend in with other mortals their own age. Gabriel and Ivy set them up at college, where they can’t reveal their relationship, and where there is still danger around each corner. Will Bethany be called back to Heaven—forever—and face leaving the love of her life?
Praise for Halo
“[Adornetto’s] dialogue feels fresh and real, pulled from the mouths of her peers without any cultural markers necessary to prove relevance. . . . If it were not for young adult readers like her, the Y.A. boom never would have happened and publishing would be much gloomier.” —New York Times Book Review
“The 17-year-old author’s angel mythology is solid.” —Booklist
“Teenage author Adornetto’s US debut shows an impressive command of language. . . . The fantasy is sweet and enjoyable.” —Publishers Weekly

Como ya dije en los anteriores dos libros, ésta trilogía me ha sorprendido mucho, y también me ha gustado mucho. En cuanto a éste último libro, quizá se me ha hecho un poquito más lento que los otros pero igual de interesante con la lucha entre el bien y el mal, te enseña que no todo es totalmente blanco ni negro, sino que siempre hay otra forma de conseguir lo que uno necesita, ya sea creyendo en el cielo y el infierno, hay personas que sí creen, yo personalmente no, pero eso no quiere decir que yo tenga la respuesta correcta ni los que creen tampoco, por supuesto. Todas las creencias y opiniones tienen que ser respetadas, ya que cada uno es libre de pensar y obrar como entienda que tiene que hacerlo a cada paso de su vida. Bien, ya está bien de filosofía por hoy, que cuando leáis el final de ésta trilogía vais a comprender lo que quiero decir. Leedlo con la mente abierta, por favor.
