How 'bout that. That always surprises me on forums, when the user name isn't decidedly gender-identifiable....

You might start with what I call "sort of sci fi" which are books that are set in the future but don't really deal with science at all.

In this vein, I recommend the J.D. Robb "...In Death" series featuring near-future police detective Eve Dallas.
My wife loves the series, and I have enjoyed the few I've read (listened to, actually) so far as well. Most of them seem to have virtually nothing to make them identifiable as SF. For slightly more SF element than most of them, I recommend "Fantasy In Death" as a starting place.
It's got crime thriller, romance, Star Wars references....what more could anyone want?
