Zavir is a guardian. He’s the best the Krinar has. His assigned vocation is to uncover the Resistance movements popping up around the earth, and eliminate them. New information about a fast-growing Resistance camp sends him to Costa Rica, home of the largest Krinar Center. His informant is a human girl. She wants to make a deal–her traitorous family’s lives in exchange for information–but Zavir … Zavir doesn’t make deals, and he takes no prisoners. When the time comes to wipe out the secret organization, his pretty, innocent little mole will learn the truth. She made a deal with the devil, and the price is something far more tantalizing than information.

One of the darkest and steamiest Krinar books to date, with sizzling writing and a hero bordering on anti-hero. Loved it!
I really enjoyed The Krinar’s Informant this is a world that I was ever so glad to head back into.
After previously reading Mia and Korum story which I devoured even though Mia herself got right on my wick: I was very interested to see how this author would compare to my previous exposure within this world.
No worries at all: this was a fantastic read hooking me right from the onset.
The Krinar’s Informant had just the right amount of action versus romance to keep me satisfied and also invested in the story.
So this is set in Costa Rica and here we get to meet Zafir a Guardian and Liv a human girl whose brothers have dragged her into joining a resistance cell.
To save her family Liv turns traitor promising information to the enemy for her family’s safe passage.
So after quashing the rebels Zafir, as he intended all along, takes Liv for his own.
Only knowing he wants to keep her and very inept at showing his softer side he treats Liv almost as a cherished pet which she doesn’t take to very kindly.
The power play that follows was equal parts hot as well as infuriating.
Zafir is a typical controlling make no apologies Alpha-Alien and Liv a stubborn as hell independent woman: watching the sparks fly and these two circle each over was ever so satisfying indeed.
On the action and intrigue front, this also delivers along with some unexpected twists thrown in
bringing events to a satisfying conclusion for all.
This is one story I am happy to recommend an easy read that I read in one sitting.

I have not read books of the Krinar’s before this one but if they are this good I will start reading them. Zavir and Liv are so very different from spieces and from world’s but the thing they have in common is that they fight to protect those they love and are loyal to. I love reading their journey from being enemies to being so in love with each other that I just found it so beautiful. I will definitely be looking forward from this world in the future.
Zavir is a Krinar on a mission. His job is to eliminate any resistance against the Krinar. Liv is determined to save her brothers who are members of a resistance group, so she becomes an informant. She wants to make a deal with Zavir, she’ll give him crucial information and he’ll protect her brothers. But Zavir has plans of his own and Liv finds out that he will stop at nothing to make her his! An emotional love story of passion and irresistible attraction! There’s adventure, suspense and undeniable chemistry! Zavir is a proud man, he wants to protect Liv at all costs. Liv is attracted to him from the beginning but feels responsible for her brothers and Zavir’s possessive attitude makes her mad! While they try to come to terms with their feelings, there’s an enemy moving in the shadows, determined to destroy everything they hold dear. I love Charmaine Pauls and can’t wait for her next books!
It was all a matter of time, and time was something Liv didn’t have.
Officially, she was part of the Resistance – that huge group still fighting bravely to eliminate or expel the Krinars from Earth.
But her mission now wasn’t that. Liv wanted to save her brothers, Erik and Karl.
They were also part of the Resistance, the second-in-command, led by their childhood friend, Hans.
They had a bold plan to attack Lenkarda, the main Krinars city in Costa Rica, but Liv knew that soon her brothers would be caught and could die, just as their parents died at the time of the Great Panic.
Then she would meet a famous Krinar.
Zavir was a guardian.
By helping Korum a while ago, he had earned the respect of the Council’s scientist krinar, and there were even plans – on Korum’s nomination – that Zavir become the Protector.
But before that happened, Zavir went to meet the human female at a bar.
She had a bargain to make: she would hand over the plans and the full list of group participants, including scientists, politicians, religious, in exchange for her brothers and herself not to be killed or the memory erased.
But their meeting was explosive.
Krinars regard sex as healthy in their daily lives. No compromise, no hurt. But they also have the ability to immediately identify when their mate was present.
This female was not what Zavir imagined one day would be attracted to (even though several Krinars were in the habit of having humans as their sexual partners).
Now he not only wanted to decimate the resistance cell, but to protect that woman as well.
Many Krinars looked at Liv menacingly, and Zavir wanted to protect her from any bad incident (and he took that as an excuse to have her tied to him), after all, if she made a bargain, he would make another too.
However, these rebels were being aided by a Krinar, and it was imperative for Zavir to find out who was the traitor – the Keith.
And when his future charl was kidnapped, Zavir moved heaven and earth to arrest the Keith and rescue his myklyra (beloved).
5 stars
I cannot get enough of the Krinar World that Anna Zaire’s created and has graciously allowed other authors to join. This story so reminded me of the original storyline between Mia and Korum. Liv is a strong-willed woman who is willing to go to extreme lengths to protect those she loves. Zavir is an arrogant, tough as nails guardian whose reputation precedes him. When the two meet, their chemistry is combustible but they have communication and understanding issues due to their respective divergent backgrounds. However, the more time they spend together, they manage to form an accord and Liv begins to accept her new status with her ‘captor’. As the tension mounts and danger is coming from somewhere totally unexpected will Zavir be able to figure it out before it is too late? This is one highly intense and impactful read from start to finish. I highly recommend it along with the rest of the books written in this amazing alien world of Krinar and look forward to future installments.
I volunteered to read an arc of this book.
From start to finish this story will pull you in and not let go until you reach the end. Zavir Is this all alpha male that is extremely protective and feels he doesn’t have to explain himself. Liv is a strong and loving lady. Together they have a chemistry that doesn’t stop. There is action, suspense, drama, mystery, with hot romance. The story is extremely well written and the characters are superbly developed. This story will keep you on the edge of your seat and you won’t be able to put it down. I voluntarily review an advanced reader copy of this book.
Another favorite! I’m a big fan of the Krinar world that began with Anna Zaire’s novels so I was excited to get the chance to read The Krinar Informant. It’s gripping and suspenseful with wonderful characters. My feelings were all over the place at times not knowing what was going to happen next or if I wanted to root for our alien hero because he could be downright infuriating! But this story was SO good and I think this is an excellent addition to the Krinar world.
The Krinar’s Informant by Charmaine Pauls is the story of Zavir and Liv.
This was a great sci-fi romance where two total different types of people felt a instant connection. They were from different sides of an issue too. Loved reading how these two came together.
Really enjoyed this story.
This was my first and I couldn’t get enough, Alien and Human and I absolutely loved what made this fierce warrior tick and just everything about Zavir he was big time hard core and what he wanted he wanted and his learning process with his captive Liv and their battle against each other was off the charts hot with the chemistry that was brewing. The writing and these characters were amazingly done and very intense in places but I couldn’t put it down for anything, I loved it. My Favorite was the ending and the phrase TELL ME SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL my heart just melted right there.
4.5 Stars for The Krinar’s Informant
Liv is a soldier in the resistance movement against the Krinar. She’s also the informant that’s going to sell out her organization to protect her two brothers from the wrath of the Krinar.
Zavir is the Krinar that Liv trusts with the sensitive information about the resistance movement. She bargains with him the information he needs to take down this group, before an uprising occurs, to protect all those within the resistance who are too idiotic to see that their plan will fail.
But the real focus of this story is Liv and Zavir, and their physical attraction to one another. Add a little (or a lot of) Alpha Male Krinar Hotness who can’t wait to take a little taste from the curvy and feisty little human, and BANG! – You’ve got yourself a hawt alien-human captivity story!
I love Charmaine Pauls’ The Krinar Informant! Zavir is unapologetic in his assertive asshole way in protecting his “little kitten”. And as for Liv, she is relentless in finding all the angles to play Zavir. Unfortunately for Liv (but yeah for the readers who enjoy a good power exchange between the love interests) Zavir is such a detached asshole that none of Liv’s attempts to goad Zavir actually work.
I love the Krinar Series and The Krinar‘s Informant is Charmaine Pauls’ second book in Krinar World. This story is vague enough to keep it fairly flexible within the other series’ timeline but also gives enough detail to indicate the first Resistance movement has already occurred all the while Mia and Korum are still in Lenkarda! I love that Mia and Korum were featured in this book as they are two of my fav charl-cheren couples!
Zavir and Liv’s story is hawt. There are certainly some difficult parts between their power exchange (which is something I love about the author’s writing!!!!) but the sweet moments were also present and a bit of a relief. The reader certainly feels what poor Liv emotionally endured due to Zavir and his very frustrating-stubborn-Alpha-hotheaded ways!
The Krinar’s Informant is a must read!
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
This is interesting world! Liv is trying to save her only family she has left. She knows the fraction they follow isn’t the good guys. So she plans to save them by going to their enemy. Liv didn’t think it would turn out to fall in love with Zivar.
The book it self was entertaining and so fascinating to read.
Received as an ARC for my honest review.
Liv makes a deal to inform the Krinar of the resistance’s plans in exchange for the protection of her twin brothers. Zavir has other plans for Liv, keeping her permanently as his. Read on to find out how things work out. This was a sexy, engaging story with a possessive hero and brave woman. A good sci-fi romance read.
This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I am very pleased that to have found her! This is an awesome read, very well written and a definite page turner, I didn’t want to put the book down which resulted in my staying awake reading all night! I shall definitely be looking for other novels by this author.
I’ll be the Krinar’s informant!
This book has insta-lust between Liv & Zavir, & I insta-loved this book! This story takes place in Anna Zaires’ Krinar world, but you don’t need to read her books to enjoy this one (even though I highly recommend that you do read them!). Liv was feisty & became the Krinar’s informant to save her brothers, & I loved those qualities about her. Zavir was my perfect type of Alpha male, even though his methods of keeping Liv at the beginning were underhanded. The drama starts when things go wrong with Zavir’s mission to save her brothers & stop the Resistance & he has to take them all to the Krinar’s settlement. It broke my heart that both Liv & Zavir wouldn’t tell each other how they felt after a bond formed, but the happy ending left me smiling. I enjoyed this book so much, & so will you!
When I started reading I couldn’t put it down.Charmaine Pauls is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can’t wait for the next book.
Another fabulous installment to the Krinar World, The Krinar’s Informant was intense, angsty and steamy with twists and turns you would not expect. Charmaine Pauls had me on the edge of my seat and I read it all out in one sitting. Zavik and Liv had sizzling chemistry and their back and forth banter had me amused in the beginning the moment they met. However this Alpha K would soon learn that he could get so much more by asking instead of taking. I enjoyed this novel. Charmaine stayed true to the Krinar world and gave us a thrilling story to enjoy.
Liv Madsen thinks her brothers, who are second-in-command to the Resistance leader, are on a suicide mission. Liv meets with the handsome Zavir to strike a deal … information on the biggest Resistance cell the world in exchange for her family’s safety. Krinar guardian Zavir maintains law and order and it’s his job to wipe out movements that pose a threat to Krinar/human safety. Zavir is amused by the gutsy and pretty Liv and after he single-handedly takes down the Resistance, Zavir claims Liv as his charl. Liv isn’t happy to be confined to Zavir’s home as his charl and Zavir is running out of ideas on how to make Liv accept him. Just when Liv is starting to trust Zavir, she finds out her brothers have escaped, and Zavir knew. The only way for Zavir to get back into Liv’s good books is to find her brothers and figure out who the traitor among the K’s ranks are. But Zavir has been sent on a wild goose chase by the traitor to kidnap Liz. Will Zavir be able to save Liv?
The Krinar’s Informant is an action-packed, suspenseful and steamy story that will reel you in
Not the biggest sci fi fan I had read Charmaines other book in the series,loved it so obviously wanted to give this one a go. It did not disappoint.
Liv and Zavirs story is led by Liv’s determination to save her family from what is wrong. Zavir is a K and she feels she can trust him,but can she?
Zavirs desire for Liv burst off the page but to begin with you are unsure whether you like his obnoxious Alpha moves .
Hot ,sexy and action packed. An easy page turner read and by the end you will want your own K and you will dream about trees,blossom and humming birds ….
4 easy stars
Intense, emotional, steamy and dramatic, this book captured and held my interest easily and well. I loved the chemistry between Zavir and Liv. Zavir is fierce and very alpha. To start he seems to be very cold and unlikable, but as the story progresses and we get in his head we learn that still waters run deep. In the end I was a huge fan and was in fact quite swoony for him. Liv, I felt for. The position she was in was not enviable. Spunky, determined, protective and committed to doing what she felt was right, she was definitely a heroine you could connect with and root for. The story is beautifully written, the plot engaging and as a whole the book is exciting, entertaining and enjoyable. If you like plenty of heat, hot aliens that know what they want and sci-fi themes, you don’t want to miss this one.
