Why these tropes fit
When one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Pestilence, arrives in her town to mark everyone she loves for death, Sara shoots the unkillable horseman off his steed. The furious, angelic-looking rider takes Sara prisoner, and as she is forced to travel with him, her certainty about his feelings—and her own—begins to shift. She must ultimately choose between saving the world and sacrificing her heart.
