These immortal truths / Rachelle Raeta.
"[This book is a] romantic historical fantasy that explores not only what it means to live forever, but what it means to truly live at all. 'Did I not tell you, Anna? Death will not come for you.' Anna is used to hunger and hardship. Ever since the pale shadows on her skin were mistaken for leprosy, she has lived alone in exile, each day focused only on survival. Then a single act of kindness towards a beautiful stranger changes her life forever. Suddenly, neither time nor harm can touch her, and Anna strives to embrace a life with boundless potential, one that isn't only about survival. But as decades and centuries pass, she is continually forced to abandon each new life before it has the chance to feel like home. The only constant in her eternal existence is Khiran-the shapeshifting god who gave her immortality. No matter the years or distance, he always finds her when she most needs him. But there is more to immortality than Anna knows, and as she travels the ages, she will discover the beauty-and cost-of a life without end"-- Provided by publisher.
