Sooo...
Feeling a little foolish. I've read so many books this year that I was looking for a sequel in the midst of all the seasonal madness and can't remember the title or author of book one. I was hoping y'all could help me.

Sci-fi alien, m/m romance with feline-like Avatar creatures. A scientist goes to a new planet to escape a failed relationship, meets a new species, mates, etc. after serious bio-changes. mpreg
