Jim Butcher's Codex Alera series has heavy Roman influences for the military scenes.
Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn is kinda medieval-esque, but the whole world is a nice twist on the usual theme. (not sure if its a spoiler to say what that twist is.) His latest in the world, Alloy of Law, starts Wild West before going away from that specific genre and moving to an urban setting.
Although they are branded Paranormal Romance (but I consider Bujold's Sharing Knife those as well), the St. Helens/Harmony series by Jayne Castle are set on a modern era colonized planet with some 'magic'.
