A wonderful read, great characters and wonderful scenario you will be entranced by
Raina had been taken from earth along with her family members who had believed they were humans but had discovered that in fact the were capable of incredible power, if they were with their Mates it allowed them as a Triad to use their power for good and with out the control of her mates her life and power could over taker her.
Cylex had been her Source and Kern is her Controller and she is the Conduit, without the collection of three her power will overtake her and she could lose herself and Cylex has loved her since he met her but had not been able to approach her in the capacity of her bodyguard.
It seems that when Kern had originally kidnapped her it had been achieved by them sending him away on a mission and this had allowed Kern to kidnap her and remove her from the safety of the Citadel, she was being kept in. Raina and Kern and Cylex with the assistance of Mistress Air who also assures her that she will not be forced into anything.
The three had moved away from the sanctuary and had got onto a ship and together Cylex and Kern are to take her to a place of safety, she understands that in their own capacity they are an ideal source of Controller and Source but unless the balance is well matched the Triad will not move and without each other they must all pull together and support each other unless her power would overcome her and she would be lost.
As the three work together in learning to trust each other and training how to use the energy they had access to and the lives that could be saved but only if they learned to trust each other, it would not be easy but it seemed that Raina and the two past friends have to build their Triad together.
Throughout there is so much greed and theft, kidnapping and murder and the amazing mystery of the females with remarkable power and the strength they have when they become Triads with their mates it is such a carefully balanced operation and it cannot be unbalanced.
I guarantee that once you begin reading this book you will be totally enthralled by the story and will not put the book down until you have reached the end of the book and discover the outcome of these mates.
It is only Raina’s choice and agreement that can allow for the Triad and she will decide who will be her lifelong mates, she is able to see what is in their hearts and is determined she would have a family that would be her mates forever and that their life would be happy, safe and secure.
I assure you that you will love every moment of this book it is simply a fantastic read.

Ok read.

Now that Flora and Cara had finally found their mates and settled, Raina is next. But Raina isn’t easily swayed. She is the one that truly held out. Being at that Citadel is all new and being the last conduit to find her mates was dire. She already knew her bodyguard Cylex. All her fantasies involved him. When she is taken and to be given to Jevara, things heat up. Kern is an alien of mystery. We learn a lot about how he and Cylex are linked. With Raina now becoming activated, it is important to find her a controller and a source. I do love that Raina is not push over. She fights and tries to keep control of everything. Unfortunately, that is not how it works being a conduit. If you read the other two books in the series, you know why. I have to say their skill is far stronger than the others. We get the full backstory of what really happened with Cylex and Kern when they were growing up. But I feel that the ending left us hanging. I wanted to know what was going to happen next. I hope we get another story to tie things up. We still have Jevara out there and he needs to be stopped.

After Raina (h), her sisters and grandmother are taken from Earth to planet Altor due to the extraordinary abilities the three sisters possess, she's told that she'll be shared by two mates who will control and dominate if every possible way. As a Conduit, Rain will need two mates, her Source and Controller to form a Triad to allow her to harness her powers. Kern (H), a Torretian mercenary, abducts Raina and she struggles as her powers become uncontrollable, leading her to plead with him to claim her. But even after their passionate encounter, Raina's powers demand more. To tame the consuming power within her, Raina must complete her Triad with both Cylex (H) and Kern, each serving a vital role in her life. As they learn to trust and control their abilities, they face danger and suspense, especially from the looming threat of Jevara. Amidst a backdrop of greed, theft, kidnapping, and danger, the Triad seeks balance and unity to protect their world. Plenty of hot and sexy that keeps building throughout the book. If dominant partners, spanking and rough sex aren't your thing, then this isn't the book for you. Did I mention there's a lot of hot menage action?

Hot and steamy, but also sweet and deeply romantic in some ways, Rains has rebelled being claimed because she resents giving up the independence that she's always believed she had a right to growing up on Earth. Deep down she understands that she needs to submit and be claimed to control her fire, she resents the choice being taken from her. So when she's kidnapped, things get even more interesting. With every side fighting to get a hold of her, it's a wonder if she even survives. But with the help of Kern and Cylex maybe she'll get what she wants. Lots of action and adventure as well as great worldbuilding. Highly entertaining. Loved it!.

Her Own Triad..
Book three in the exchange power series and wow there is so much going on as we follow the third Hayes sister Raina a newly activated conduit and two unlikely hybrid mates Kern (controller) and Cylex (source)who will help her bank her powers.
This read was quite suspenseful as Kern and Cylex keep Raina safe from being used as a pawn in the war between the rebels and the Emperor Jevara but are willing to take their time in a steamy courtship as they convince Raina that she is perfect for them….

So this was good but you really have to love discipline and spanking. This is a Dom / Sub type situation and a power struggle so if that's not your thing you're not going to like this. The guys themselves were fine, but I found Raina a bit annoying tbh. She's constantly fighting against the triad and applying earth logic to everything especially during sex scenes and it got annoying after a while.

This is the 3rd book in the series but it can be read as a standalone. Raina was taken from Earth and told she would belong to two aliens. When Kern abducts her for the Rebels, she will choose her mates but will they be able to control the power within her? Fast-paced read with loads of drama, suspense and sizzling scenes. Great world building and an entertaining story. I liked it.

I love the Exchanged Power series…
Raina was expected to become part of an Altorian power triad, two males and one female in order to capitalize upon their paranormal abilities. When Torretian mercenary Kern and Cylex enter into the mix, Raina’s triad develops in powerful surprising ways… I received a free copy of this book. This review was posted voluntarily.

Excellent story. A very good book and series. I enjoyed this story. Sharing and exchanging power dynamics and the emotions involved are the themes of this episode and that of the whole series by Ivy Barrett. Hot and spicy is another aspect she hits right on the head. Definitely an adult content book and series.

Books 1 - 3 wow
I read each book one after the other. I was invested in the characters and their stories. Each couple had different personalities and experiences but each story sucked the reader in. Thank you Stormy Night Publishers

Love this series
I can't wait to see what's next. I hope zevon gets a mate. This book was encredable. As is the first 2 books I'm so glad that there will be more. I wonder if laidon will have another chance. I'm excited with the possibilities.

Who is owned?
I read this out of sequence, although it does stand alone. The plot is interesting and the ‘abilities’ of the characters develops it feels as though this was addressed too briefly and leaves me feeling there ought to be more this story … Still an enjoyable read.

Owned book 3
Reina, Kern and Cylex were my favourite Triad. Whilst she had more choices than her cousin's they were more willing to compromise their dynamics with Reina.
It was an interesting read and found myself identifying with the injustices of the females treatment.

Another great book in the series which manages to be different enough to not be that predictable which is unusual for series like this. Lots of hot action as well. Thought it might finish with three main characters but potential for lots more books and some more settings.

Great book
Was not expecting the twists and turns in the story. It was wonderful. Cannot wait for for in the series.

Good
Still not sure I truly understand this triad thing. Is it magic? This story was less about plot and more about character.

Raina’s journey is more desperate and volatile, turning up the intensity both emotionally and physically. The "two mates, one Omega" setup is used to full effect here, with high heat and chaotic need driving the plot. The fire within Raina feels more literal than figurative, which keeps the tension scorching even as the storyline tightens.
