Hidden Empire (The Saga of Seven Suns, #1)
by
"The women in this novel are strong in different ways. Some are insistent leaders. Some endure abuse but rise above it. This is an epic saga so there is no single protagonist."

Timebound (The Chronos Files, #1)
by
"The main character touches a time crystal and suddenly she is kissing a man she has never met, or no longer remembers. I found the first book interesting but the sequel less so."

Polaris (Alex Benedict, #2)
by
"Even though this is an Alex Benedict" novel, the real action in the book is performed by his plucky assistant Chase Kolpath. She knows she is pretty but doesn't make a big deal about it."

The Clockwork Rocket (Orthogonal, #1)
by
"Well... not exactly a woman but a female living in another universe where giving birth means giving up a life... the mother's life. And to save the world this female will have to build a rocket and outwit time itself. It's really weird but I liked the series."
