Heaven by Alexandra Adornetto

This is the last book in the Halo Series.  Bethany and Xavier are chased by Sevens that are like Heaven's rebel renegade army.  That was unbelievable to me, even in fantasy since if they were renegade, they wouldn't be in Heaven or working for Heaven.

Eve, Bethany's psychologist in Heaven was also an unbelievable character since someone so repulsive in their militant soul-crushing state probably wouldn't be in Heaven either.  I suppose it is difficult to argue since it is fantasy though.  I just don't really feel comfortable fantasizing about something like that along with the author.

During this novel Bethany and Xavier are under cover hiding from the Sevens that seek to apply justice to Bethany for marrying a mortal (Beth and Xavier are married at the beginning of the first chapter or somewhere around there).

Beth and Xavier hide undercover at Ole Miss University so they get to experience University life.  Eventually the Sevens realize that Xavier is a 1/2 human, 1/2 angel and they want him more than Bethany.  Ivy is Xavier's creator who got Xavier's mother to have a child.

Bethany eventually is captured toward the end of the novel and taken to Heaven prison where she gets a psychologist, Eve to help her become an angel again and forget her mortal life.  You have to read the book to see how it turns out :).  I would give this novel a 7/10.  Better than the rest, but still somewhat not settling well with me.
