Behind ‘enemy lines’ the last thing she expects is a sexy alien warrior determined to make her his… both back to her own ship without causing a diplomatic incident that could result in the annihilation of the human race.
The problem is one sexy as hell alien warrior. Tall, silver-haired and handsome, he’s her escort for the evening and makes her want things she certainly shouldn’t want from an alien, no matter how sexy he is. But then a conversation goes bad, and she finds herself in an alien challenge circle fighting for her freedom. It’s all going well, until her sexy alien steps into the ring…
The moment he saw her, he swore he’d make the beautiful human woman his mate.
Sardaan is the envy of his shipmates when he’s assigned by the emperor to escort a visiting human dignitary for a diplomatic function. But that’s not all he’s been assigned to do… under orders to seduce the beautiful human woman at any costs, Sardaan is more than happy to do his duty.
Things take a turn for the unexpected when a simple display of combat prowess becomes a challenge fight. Sardaan must step into the ring against the woman he yearns for her and claim her before he loses her forever to another. But, once he’s beaten her and claimed her in the eyes of his people, he realises his battle has only just begun.
Can he make his delicate but stubborn little mate see they have a future? Or will forces conspire in the shadows and steal any chance of happiness they have before it’s even begun?
Sparks fly in this latest red-hot sci-fi romance in New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Mina Carter’s Warriors of the Lathar series.

Bonded To The Alien Centurion is a compelling story of fated mates and what it means to be a kick ass human living in an extraterrestrial world. Mina Carter brings sexy alien warriors to life in her Warriors of the Lathar series!
Bonded To The Alien Centurion is book seven in the Warriors of the Lathar series by Mina Carter.
It was enjoyable to a point. Not my favorite and not one I’ll read again. By this point the series is starting to feel a bit old. Nothing new or refreshing happens and we still don’t have a deal or conclusion with the humans.
As for the romance we have Sardaan a Lathar Warrior and Dani a Human Solider. It was the same old same old struggle of back and fourth, where the human women is like no I don’t want a mate and the male is yes you are mine. They’re where too many scenes with Dani struggling and then she gives in so easily. She also lost her badness. As for our Lathar Warrior he started out nice, but then became a dick. Also there where too many close areas that could be considered forced sex or almost rape. This romance didn’t work for me.
Overall I’ve enjoyed the series, but Bonded To The Alien felt flat and didn’t progress the series forward at all. It’s just another version of the human fighting the bond.
Rated: 3 Stars
Thank Goodness the Lathar are back! I’ve had withdrawal symptoms.
Dani is on a mission to ensure that the Vice President is returned safe and unharmed from the Lathar ship. She did not rise to the rank of Major General by being weak but as she approaches the ship she realises just how out-classed the Terrans are.
Sardaan is a revered warrior and works with Fenriis and Danaar. But he has a very well hidden softer side – he is coaching weaker warriors so that they are not untrained cannon fodder. He refuses to ignore them as others do. When he first saw Dani onscreen he felt the tug towards her. Now he just has to get her to understand that she is his, and he is hers! Oh and maybe put down a truly stupid plan to try and overtake the ship!
Dani and Sardaan truly are two of a kind. Both are strong, determined and loyal to their leaders – although one learns that power has a way of corrupting. Dani is superb at taking down misogynistic men quickly – causing more than a few rude awakenings. But secrets, lies and mistrust are exacting a toll on the flames that erupt when they are alone! And it’s also great that the leaders are older, even if one doesn’t quite look it – even with the silver hair!
Great addition to the series and I am on tenterhooks waiting for a certain leader to get his HEA.
Another enjoyable read in this series but too short to do this story real justice.
A great plot that kept me reading till the end but this series needs to step it up a bit and move forward. A few discrepancies between descriptions in earlier books and this one.
Also, as much as I loved Dani, she seemed to lose the Major Tough title pretty easily.
Unfortunately there is a sad part which was upsetting.
I want to know what the president of earth is doing though, that all these attacks are being orchestrated. Is he just ignorant or culpable of idiocy?
I love how capable, smart and strong the human female characters are.
There are so many characters whose story I want to read and I cannot wait for the next book.
This is my honest review of this book.
I love this series! It’s entertaining to watch these hardened warriors have their lives completely changed by their feisty, strong-willed human mates. The latest couple is Dani and Sardaan. One look is all it took for Sardaan to decide Dani was his. Of course it won’t be easy. There will be battle challenges, betrayal, treason and an assassination attempt to deal with. We are also given a glimpse of two new mate matches…wonder which couple will be first? I can’t wait.

Sardaan and Dani
I just love this series I am never tired of it. The books will have you smiling or laughing out loud at some of the antics of the Warriors and how they are learning to cope with human women. And this book is no different the stories just keep getting better as these tough rugged Warriors are pitted against human intelligence and let’s just say Humanity is lacking.
Dani and Sardaan are both older Warriors who made a career and their own militaries. Start an help train the Quesadan of his race. These young men are 3rd and 4th children or should I say generations that are considered of no importance. Their lives are worth nothing to their families and that in itself is sad but that is the way of the lost our world.
Dani join the military to escape her planet after all her family has died. She is only known the military life since that time and has made a name for herself among that group of people. She is strong and fearless no matter how petite she is and will not back down from a challenge if she believes she can win.
These two characters we’re interesting enough to read that I didn’t put the book down once I started it and I can just say thoroughly enjoyed their story.
I have voluntarily written this review.
An engrossing story!
Reading this series is always a pleasure. Sardaan’s story is no exception! I really like Sardaan. He wants to help the young warriors from poor families. They are treated like disposable warriors: fodder for the battlefield.
Dani is superbly well-trained, able to maximize the impact of her small size with techniques. When her loved ones are threatened, her options are limited. Great reading, interesting characters, an engrossing story
Another great read from Mina. All of her books are a wonderful read.
Another good stand alone book in the series, which extends the great world building. Good character development, showing determination and emotional struggle well. Love how the main couple actually had to talk to get to understand each other.
Aliens are pretty much cave men in their attitude with women, ‘she’s mine and I’m having her’. Gotta love it when the female character is a strong woman.
This was fun and easy to read.
I am enjoying this series so well-written. I’d like to see it get a little more in-depth with the Terran side of things and what’s going on, on Earth.
This is part of the Lathar series. I’m a little surprised how many women are in top command, out in the middle of space and are matches for the Alien Warriors. Putting that aside, you see can see that these women are written as critical thinkers, powerful individuals that are willing to do what is right for all of human kind, and they can kick some arse. Does that get them into a bit of a bind? Maybe, but it’s the bureaucrats that started it. As this story progressed, I wanted to see the other stories that were just budding play out. Hopefully we won’t have to wait to long for their stories. I enjoyed the story, it had a good pace and good characters.
I absolutely loved the book. I fell into the story and did not want to put it down. You will be on the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next. I would love to see more set in this world. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Dani has a job to do and she is determined to do it. But when a challenge must be met will Dani’s job take a back seat to surviving? I really enjoyed this addition to Ms. Carter’s Warriors of Lathar series. Dani is a strong female character who commands many. She is tasked with negotiating for the freedom of the vice president. I love that Dani uses her wits as well as her fighting skills. Meeting Sardaan was not in the plans. But I love that Dani rolls with it. Even if she doesn’t like where rolling leads. And I adored Sardaan. He is such an honorable male. He may want Dani for his own but he doesn’t like how he gets her. That doesn’t mean he won’t make the best of it. I love these two characters together. They are both honorable and trying to make the best of what they have. I love that Sardaan appreciates the nature of the woman who has snagged his heart. He is determined to obtain hers but will he ever regain the trust he has in her? This story is a well written enjoyable read. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Dani and Sardaan. I love seeing their journey towards happily ever after and cannot wait to see where Ms. Carter will take us next in this world she has created.
