I think I read this early to mid 2000's. I remember the girl is a midwife's apprentice. The very first chapter she is with the midwife at a mother in labor's house who is struggling during the labor. The girl sees death standing by the bed and the mother catches on and realizes she is about to lose the baby. By the end the girl and death are together. I think they even have kids by the end.
