Malicifer — Aubrie Dionne

Maylin is a lowly milkmaid in a kingdom perched by the sea. All she wants is to win the affection of a newly knighted man, and she'll do almost anything to get his attention. When her city is threatened by a wizard army and her beloved knight stays behind to shield the villagers' escape, she is tempted to resurrect the cursed sword, Malicifer, to save him. But rumor has it the bearer will suffer from battle-lust until death, killing everyone in his path. Can Maylin overcome the power of the curse?
