Mortal Heart (Alice Worth World Book 1)

A fallen angel, Ronan, is sent to Earth to live amongst the humans as a bounty hunter for punishment because he broke angelic laws. He is forced to live in a human body without his angelic powers while trying to live a righteous life, so in the end, he could be judged to see if he is worthy to gain his angelic form back. Ronan feels lost, useless in his newfound body, until he runs into Arkady Woodall, a private investigator who used to work for the Vampire Court. While being teamed up with Arkady in this supernatural mystery, Ronan starts to feel things he has never felt before. He soon discovers Arkady has the same pull towards him, and the only way to survive the bounty is being by each other sides, as a team.
