The Warrior Trainer

the long version

The Warrior Trainer (Stones of Destiny #1) by Gerri Russell (Goodreads Author) 3.81 · Rating details · 527 ratings · 35 reviews Scotia's duty is to protect the Stone of Destiny--the key to Scotland's salvation, and the reason she and the women who guarded the Stone before her had become the best warriors in the world. Yet those women had never met a man like Ian MacKinnon. He's journeyed to her castle to learn her legendary skills so he can exact vengeance against the English. His viciousness on the battlefield stands in stark contrast to his tenderness in the bedroom. But he will soon move on, leaving Scotia to face a conflict for which she has no training: her duty to the Stone versus her desire to follow her heart.
