looking for sf book female human marries male tiger

[debbs]

Does anyone remember the series of books about a female human; she is a slave on a planet and as the story line progresses she hooks up with a male who is a cognitive tiger/lion/feline? She or her sister were forced to be prostitutes or something like that .... the series is probably from the 90's. I remember that in some of the later series they do some sort of time travel ... by the end of the series they had mated and had hybrid human/feline child ... started better than it ended.

anway if anyone remembers I'd love to know ... it's been bugging me for a couple years that I can't remember the author or the series .. :)

thanks

Its not one of Larry Niven's Man-Kzin wars books is it?

[debbs]

Nope, I looked up all of his books and it wasn't any of these.

I do appreciate your help tho' .... it's like an itch you can't scratch ... it's at the edge of my mind I just can't grab it, so frustrating .... :D
