Mortal Heart (Alice Worth World Book 1) by [Lisa Edmonds]

Review from Jeannie Zelos book reviews

Genre: Romance, Sci-fi and Fantasy

Oh good, back to Alice Worth and her world. Alice isn't in this book, but her new business partner Arkady and Ronan, who we met towards the end of the series are the main characters. They're both interesting people, with difficult histories that make them very much like Alice, strong mentally and physically and finding it difficult to mix easily, having little patience with the mundane.
I adored the Alice worth series, one of my fantasy favourites, with many side characters who have a story to tell. I hope So I jumped into this eagerly and wasn't disappointed. Unlike AW series this one seems to be connected books rather than an overarching story-line. I don't mind, I like both.
I really enjoyed this book, it wasn't quite as gripping as the Aw books but very close. I loved being back in that familiar world.
They come together in an investigation that turns out to be part of a bigger ring and they have a joint purpose in ending it even though they clash – badly, or terrifically depending on your POV!. Of course there's the trademark clashes, dangers, bad guys and problems taking them down that slowly bring Ronan and Arkady closer, finding out they actually like and admire each other and its not just the sizzling sexual tension that's pulling them together.
