Anyways--John Ringo is not my favorite. I read "A Hymn Before Battle," and though there were some aspects I really didn't like, it was more the "author's voice" that I didn't appreciate, not the story. Then he had the sequel, then the sequel after that, and boom, it was a really long series that completely skewed off the course it was on.
I do like David Drake a whole lot, though he's a lot of hardcore military sci-fi, so if you want love or anything... he'll give you mercenaries and violence instead.
S.M Stirling has some good stuff. "The General" was great, though that was him writing with David Drake.
Keith Laumer's "Bolos" is great. Also, there's Eric Flint. Some of his stories are pretty solid, though he introduces some disturbing things, or goes off on the semi-ridiculous.
Most of these guys, you can at least get the first book free from the Baen Free Library.
