The Tiger's Woman 
She called herself Mary Smith and hid her extraordinary beauty behind widow's weeds. She came to San Francisco in flight from a secret so shattering, a man so dangerous, that no disguise could long shield her. Then she met Jason Drake--The Tiger--lover, gambler, empire builder, the one man whose power offered sanctuary.
Bound by a cold bargain, she would follow him to the majestic isolation of the San Juan Islands. There, slowly, she could learn to be free...a tenuous love could grow-until the past caught up with them and set their world aflame, testing the very special love of...The Tiger's Woman
The pace of the book could have been tightened up but since it was published in 1981, it is a fat book of 590 pages. I gave it a three because the pace dandled but it is altogether a good book. Mary Smithmeets Jason Drake as a small child in New York City. She is far from home when she meets him again in San Francisco where she has disguised herself so as not to be found. She remembers him although he doesn't remember her but his attraction to her is so strong that soon he had taken her the
The Tiger's Woman by Celeste de Blasis.... and excellant novel (epic) to read.

I would rather read the Outlander series!
This is one of my favorite books. It is one of the best historical romance works that I have ever read. The story is unique, the characters are unforgettable, and the detail is richly atmospheric. Like most of the other reviewers, I have read THE TIGER'S WOMAN more than once, and I plan to read it again. Recommended for romance fans and skeptics alike.
Excellent book!!!
I read this book like when it first came out and I LOVED IT! The Hero and the Heroine are both emotionally damaged and it was the first book within the romance realm that spoke about sexual abuse. May not be everyones taste but again I loved it. I lost the book with several moves and I found it again on Amazon as a used book and I'm going to quickly order it. I am sad that I can't get it in ebook or pdf format as I have pretty much gotten away from books in "paper" form.

One of my top five books - I've read it more than 10 times! Her historical research is phenomenal and her characters are ones you want to live with even after 600+ pages.The pace of the book could have been tightened up but since it was published in 1981, it is a fat book of 590 pages.
