Our Immortal Hearts (Tales From The Wyldelands 1) - Lara Buckheit

She is his ruination.
He is her salvation.

Destined for death, Rory’s life has never been her own. As Adelphi's Sacrifice, every moment of her life is monitored by overbearing guards and a controlling family who will stop at nothing to ensure she remains obedient to the mortal kings.

Except Rory harbors a secret: she doesn’t want to die.

Not for her family or her kingdom, and certainly not to eradicate supernatural creatures from the world.

Famed assassin Quill doesn’t kill innocents. Yet when the vampire supreme threatens to destroy all those he holds dear if he refuses his task, he accepts what’s supposed to be his easiest assignment yet:

Eliminate Adelphi’s Sacrifice.

Only it's not so easy when Quill finds himself irresistibly drawn to Rory, the one he’s meant to assassinate...
