Even though a lot of adults, upon hearing she wrote a novel, gave her an encouraging, but condescending, “That’s nice, dear,” kind of response, Alexandra decided to send it around to some publishing houses. The now 18-year-old author of HALO, Alexandra Adornetto, made her North American debut with this novel, but was previously published (THE SHADOW THIEF) at the age of 14 in her home land of Australia.Īlexandra’s writing career originally began as a way to keep herself entertained during a summer when she was not allowed to go away on vacation with her friends.
They can’t afford to fail.īut how do you choose between the family who has loved you since time began and the boy who promises to you love you until the end and beyond? They warn her, again and again, that she must keep her identity a secret from everyone–including the boy she loves–because the enemy is closing in, tightening its grip on the town. When Bethany is unexpectedly drawn towards the school’s elusive golden boy, Xavier Woods (and he to her), Ivy and Gabriel are worried that she is becoming too human.
As the youngest of the trio, her assignment is to blend into the halls of high school (not so easy when you have no idea about things like Facebook, Britney and saying no to the mystery-party-punch), where she will wait for her heavenly purpose to become apparent. Though the others are more experienced, this is Bethany’s very first mission and she finds herself overwhelmed by all that earth has to offer. The first book in a now greatly-anticipated trilogy, HALO is the story of three angels (Gabriel, Ivy and Bethany) who are sent down to earth to protect the town of Venus Cove from mysterious dark forces that are rising up all around them. One of them finds herself a little of course, falling for a human, betraying her secret. Three angels are sent in to stand guard, complete a mission, protect the people.
Many dark forces are gathering in the sleepy beach town of Venus Cove.
