Love all of these. I think Ruth in "Ammie" is my favorite character in all of Barbara Michaels' books.

Another female character I can't get enough of is Kate Shugak, Dana Stabenow's creation. She is tough, and somewhat masculine, but she's definitely female. Considering the books are set in the Alaskan Bush, that toughness would be necessary for survival.
