Return to the worlds of the Lathar, as you've never seen them before...

She wanted a coffee and an easy shift. Instead, she got a smart-alec mercenary and commandos trying to kill her…

Medically discharged from the military over a decade ago, Station Chief Eris Archer just wants a quiet life. But life on a frontier station like Tarantus is never dull. The wild west of space, she’s used to less than scrupulous characters crossing her path.

So when handsome cyborg, Zero, charms her with fantastical tales of being non-human, she takes it with a pinch of salt. When commandos storm the base, trying to kill her and she ends up with a price on her head, she has to trust him with her life… but can she trust him with her heart?

He doesn’t know where he came from, but he knows one thing… his destiny is with her.

Zero is a mystery, even to himself. Since waking up badly damaged in a wrecked shuttle, he’s made his home with the Warborne, a band of Latharian Mercenaries with a lethal reputation. He lives fast and he expects to die young…

Until he meets her. Eris Archer captures the attention of all his instincts, human and cyborg. Drawn to her like a targeting lock… he wants to get to know her better. But his plans for a date in the station’s brig are foiled by people with guns and they have to get off the station. Fast.

Between murderous commandoes, betrayals and an unexpected rescue mission; can Zero prove to her that he’s all the man, or machine, she’ll ever need...

NB - Previously titled 'Zero's Heart'.

Alien Mercenary’s Heart is book one in the Lathar Mercenaries: Warborne series by Mina Carter.

If you’ve read Warriors of the Lathar then you are familiar with this world. This is a spin-off series. We’re introduced to the Warborne crew in Kissed by the Alien Mercenary. The Warborne are Lathar Mercenary’s, but not accepted in the Larthar Society.

Zero our hero is more cyborg than Lathar. He doesn’t remember his past. Station Chief Eris Archer, our heroine, is an X-Marine discharged; because of medical issues. All she wants is quiet.

Alien Mercenary’s Heart is a fun and cute story. It moves quickly. There’s some action, a little mystery, rescuing Eris’ brother and learning more about Zero’s crew. The Lathar Mercenary’s fight and love hard.

All and all this was a fun read and I look forward to reading on. As usual, there is an underlying story that carries through each book, so it is best to read the Lathar Warriors series first, to get the best enjoyment and understanding, but you don’t have to start this series.

Rated: 4 Stars
