Tiger's Woman, The

Description:

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.
