Actress for an Alien Prince

Intergalactic Exchange Program #5

by Roxie Ray

The paparazzi is hounding me, my fiancé cheated on me, and I’m sick of living up to everyone else’s expectations. Former child star syndrome much? Yeah, I’ve got a chronic diagnosis.

Is running away to another planet drastic? Maybe. But I’m ready and couldn’t be happier to sign my name on IEP’s dotted line. Luckily, I land a sweet job as an assistant on Tracarox. They say the place is full of sorcery, but I’m not about to fall for space magic.

Or an alien.

There’s something strange about my sorcerer boss, Ilzak. Something dark and sensual. I don’t want him, except for when my mind gets all twisted and confused. What is he doing to me?

Ilzak isn’t the only alien I’m pulled to. The instinct pulling me toward Prince Aiken Hollander is too strong for me to deny. From the first moment I see him, I want him, body and soul. And as our paths keep crossing, I fall harder and deeper.

One alien is using me. The other is my mate. Can I figure out which is real before it’s too late?

Actress Alexa Malone is tired of her cheating fiancé and the annoying paparazzi, so she signs up with the Intergalactic Exchange Program (“IEP”) to go to another planet. She gets a job as an assistant on Tracarox, which is known for the widespread use of sorcery. It doesn’t take long before she notices something strange when she is around her sorcerer boss, Ilzak. Although Alexa isn’t interested in him, her mind will feel twisted and confused at times and she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. Is he using magic to control her and force her affections?

Another attraction is also occurring with someone else, and this one feels “real”. When Prince Aiken Hollander, there to represent the IEP on Tracorox, meets Alexa, she feels a very strong pull to him -- attraction, desire, and a strong longing for this man. She wants to be his. And as their paths continue to cross, the feeling she has deepens. Apparently Ilzak has been trying to manipulate her with his sorcery, but Prince Aiken is her mate! Will he be able to get her away from Ilzak? Will she choose to be with Prince Aiken?

Alexa who was a child movie star until she had enough and gave it up. Now she spent her time going from planet to planet on holiday. This time Doyle her travel agent couldn’t offer her anywhere new but a woman from the IEP called Tory asked why she didn’t join them and then she could go to Tracorox where you could only go if you signed up to the IEP. Tory recognised her as Allie Malone who just had a bad break up from her partner. She was also mobbed by the paparazzi. She agreed to sign up. At the same time Prince Aiken Hollander was also going to Tracorox to study and also check up on the women the IEP had sent there. Sorcery is growing on Tracorox and the sorcerer say human women make them grow stronger. Alexa’s contract was bought by a gentleman to work as his assistant.she negotiated to get every weekend off. Since there were no direct flights to Tracorox she had to go to Hollander for a lay over. On Hollander she met Aiken but both gave false manes to each other and hit it off. They spent most of the night together then Alexa had to go. When she landed on Tracorox she met him again. This is where it gets complicated for Alexa. She starts working for the sorcerer and meeting Aiken when she can but unbeknown to her the sorcerer had put soldering over her tattoo and also made a copy which floated in the air to control her. She felt conflicted as she thought Aiken was her mate but at times she had feelings for the sorcerer which he was controlling. I’ll leave you to read the rest you will not be disappointed

This time is Aiken's turn, and he is on his way to Tracorox where he is supposed to investigate what's going on.  Just before going there he meets with Alexa, a former child start that is on her way to and adventure, on Tracorox.  They meet and like each other, but both are on their way to a new adventure, only to discover they are both going to the same place.  Of course they like each other, of course the mating gene is acting up again, and of course things are not going to be easy for this pair, as Alexa's boss is using sorcery to make her believe she loves him, not Aiken.

After some drama, mostly because of Alexa not believing sorcery is real and putting herself in danger, things work out well for them.  They find out that not everyone in Tacorox is evil and some women are actually happy there, but there are a few evil ones, and the corruption goes deeper and higher than they expected.  I liked that this book, just like Soren's, was different from the same formula the other had been following.  It was refreshing to have something different, even if from the start it was pretty obvious the direction it was going to take.

At the end, just like with the previous ones, we get to see a little preview of the next book, and it's cool to see that Dordus is finally getting his turn with Nanny for an Alien Commander.

Aided by excellent world building providing the reader with an interesting perspective on the society of planet Tracorox and its inhabitants, Alexa will ultimately find love with Prince Aiken of planet Hollander who’s on Tracorox as a representative of the IEP (Intergalactic Exchange Program).

Alexa was an actress until she gave the middle finger to Hollywood and her cheating ex fiancé so now she travels to planets all over the galaxy but she was running out of places to go until she meets Tory who said that she could travel to Tracorox where humans aren’t allowed to go unless they have a contract to work and sign up to be a part of IEP, Alexa was intrigued so she asked Tory where do I sign up. Aiken is going to Tracorox to further his studies and to check in on the humans who have a contract to work there because they were being abused and as the youngest prince he has a lot to prove to his brothers, while out at a club Aiken’s heart starts to pound out of his chest it is the human woman on the dance floor Alexa and lets say that things get very interesting between these two. Fantastic story I loved it and I highly recommend this book.

I am really starting to enjoy Alien stories. This is one that has a prince and an actress from earth that meet on a stop-over planet but give fake names. She has just gotten out of a bad relationship and over the paparazzi and wants to get away. She applied for a job on a plant that has magic usage all the time. Her new boss is a sorcerer that uses his magic to get her to have a feeling for him. When she and the prince and meet again on her new work plant, they are both drawn to each other that is not brought on by magic. He is her true mate. Neither is interested in the other for what or who they are. Do these two get a HEA or does the magic keep them from each other?

Aiken and Alexa meet on Hollander at a club, but because Alexa just wants to have a little fun, she and Aiken don't exchange names or information, even though they feel an instant connection, so when they reconnect on Tracoria it's like fate. From the very beginning Aiken and Alexa are made for each other. They're both committed to their assignments and even though Aiken warns Alexa about the Tracorians, she brushes it off, I mean magic? there's no such thing, right? Loved the characters, had lots of action and adventure, I was literally on the edge of my seat till the very end. Couldn't put it down. Well done.

IEP workers, human women are being held against their will and against contract in Tracorax.

When a bored ex-actress, Alexa, wants to visit a new planet, she is conned into working on Tracorax, home of sorcerers, and missing human women. At the same time Prince Allen of Hollander has decided to do his master's thesis on Tracorax, while working for IEP as a safety checker for their human female workers. The two meet in Hollander right before they both travel to Tracorax, and Alexa's new boss starts to use sorcery on her to make her love him and stay without payment. Women and his friends are looking for exactly this kind of illegal behavior, will they catch this sorcerer and free Alexa?

[Deborah Davidson · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is definitely not a stand alone book you will want to read the other books in the series first or you will be trying to figure out the characters and what has happened in the past.
Spoiler alert: Aiken is the baby brother and prince trying to find his place. He finally meets his true mate only to have to try to win her heart while a sorcerer is trying lure her in with sorcery. Alexa knows the feelings she has for Aiken are real so why is she also being drawn to her boss? True love wins out over sorcery for a happy ending.

Another entertaining story in the IEP series with hot aliens and the human women who fall for them. This time its about Aiken and Alexa. It was funny and entertaining and hot in places. Add in the fact that sorcery was involved this time due to the story taking place on Tracorox. Was danger, steam, and a bit of action in this entertaining story. Just a light hearted yet dark story that kept me reading to the end to see what Aiken and Alexa would have to face and overcome to get their happy ending. Liked that the others from the previous books also show up as always nice to check in with the others.

[Fay J · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is not just your average fated mates with a hot alien book. There is true magic in it and I loved it. Aiken is a prince but wants something of a higher purpose and someone who wants him for him not who he is, similarly Alexa who is a well known actress back on Earth. They both meet one night on Hollander, a stopover Planet and have the best night. They don't reveal their names but they do show their real selves. They part never expecting to see each other again and yet do when they both land on Tracorox. Will magic separate them or will they get their HEA (which is very well deserved!)

One Grand Adventure ✨

WOW!!! What a wild exciting ride! I knew Aiken & Alexa’s story would involved sorcery probably, since they were going to be on Tracorox, but OMG, it had so many unexpected elements too. I loved how they met, how they fell in love, and then all of the action and excitement that rose to pull them apart. Loved everything about this book, and can’t wait to see Dordus and June get their HEA in the next book. Dordus has been one of my favorite characters since the beginning of this series, and I enjoyed getting to see him so much in this book ❤️

[Karon Price · Rating 5 out of 5]

I must admit this is now my favorite alien match in the series so far. It's not just hey, we happen to meet, no they meet in a hook up place and give fake names to each other. It's not just hey, we're drawn to each other we must be mates, no they have an evil sorcerer messing with them. This took the usual trope and staleness that can sometimes come when reading a series and turned it on it's head. My only caveat to you dear readers is this is NOT a stand alone book if you want to understand what the heck is going on. Read the whole series, it's totally worth it.

This entertaining and unique presentation Alien romance theme is a book 5 in the Intergalactic Exchange Program Book Series with interesting characters. One alien is using her. The other is her mate. Can she figure out which is real before it’s too late? These characters are believably well-crafted and come to life in this unique story. This is a great addition to a suspenseful, short, and sweet romance Series. I cannot wait for the next story in this series

Earth has become a dystopian world and travel between worlds with a myriad of aliens is the norm. What isn't the norm is finding your fated one. It has been so long that anyone who knew has long since gone and if it is talked about it is as if it was a myth.

When a human is involved they will do anything to make them theirs. However, the chemistry explodes, making them confront there are feelings just waiting to be explored. As their connection simmers dangerously close to the surface, they must decide if it is worth the risks that come with uncovering their true desires.

[Nancy R · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mystery and romance go hand and hand in this latest from Roxie Ray. Our actress, Alexa takes on a job as an assistant on Tracarox, a place is full of sorcery. A chance encounter with Prince Aiken Hollander and the stage is set for a wild ride, fighting the sorcery of the sinister boss, Ilzak. I liked the book but sometimes I felt like Alexa was a little naive and sometimes down right stupid. I enjoy a strong female and this just was not her. Thus the four star rating. ❤️❤️

[Jo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Alexis and Aiken's story is another great addition to the series. I as shocked to see another human story on Tracorox after what happen to June. I was happy yo see that it was a way to try and fix the issue there. Alexis and Aiken are so much like yet so different. I was really happy with how the story was told. I can't wait to see what happens with the next lovebirds.

This books seemed to have a little less "coupling" but I loved the story. I mean don't get me wrong it was very hot and sweaty. I like how they didn't make everyone on the planet a bad guy. I kind of want to see what's going to happen with our Blue friend Zandro. I don't know if its just that Amazon Kindle copy but the guy on the front (cover) of the book has dark hair and Aiken has blond. Just an observation.

Love this series

I love this series its lighthearted but intense all at the same time and each book is so different to the previous one. This one is between Alexa and Aiden but with all the sorcery is mysterious and evil at the same time. Its even better because it brings back in all the other previous characters too which is fantastic because you get to see how their stories are developing as well

Youngest Prince

Over the course of the series we have gotten to know the Hollander princes. The story centers on the younger one Aiken.


The author did a great job with the character development. Each one could be pictured in your minds eye clearly especially Islam.

Honestly I was wondering about Alexa and if her character was a good fan in this case. Glad to day it worked out well.

Love the series, this book was slow to start, but started picking up about half way through. Main characters improved also as the story progressed. Secondary characters were more interesting. Gave 4.5 stars for the entire series.

An entertaining sci-fi romance with magic thrown in, the author has a created an inventive storyline and one great imagery. Well written characters, some nice tension, intrigue and a manipulative villain. Part of a series but a standalone I look forward to reading more.

Actress For An Alien Prince was both engrossing and at times humorous.
After a series of questionable feelings the truth came to light and Alexa and Aiken were a perfect match to each other.
I highly recommend this latest book in the series.
