Humanity by Michael Ben-Zvi: An elite soldier of the far future must decide where her real allegiances lie.
Fire Star by Shirley Chan: A young girl reclaims her family legacy and forges a new future, especially her own.
Better or Worse by Jennifer Graham: In a grim tomorrow of corporate dominance, one woman seeks her freedom at any cost.

Cascadia by Mackenzie Reide: In pursuit of the truth, a young professor must flee a fragmented nation that no longer knows what truth is.

Five Extraordinary Science Fiction Heroines Fight Battles With Courage, Wit, & Charm
I have been reading science fiction for decades, but I have never read an anthology as compelling as Infinite Dimensions (Crossroads). Composed of stories which focus on five women who each must make a critical decision that will change her life, it uses intense action, humor, insight into current social trends, and cutting edge imagination to create scenarios that captured me from the start. From the female gladiator who escaped into a society that attempted to use mind control to stop her from truly being free, to the unstoppable descendant of a rebel who brings new hope to the colonies on Mars, to the incorruptible emergency management pro who fights the corporations that cause and then benefit from environmental catastrophes, to the tireless physician who learns her life's work is based on a lie but finds the courage to start fighting a corrupt society (and maybe save it), and finally a scientist who finds both romance and a mission to stop the students in her world from being denied the right to learn, I was hooked. I only hope the writers can continue their partnership and give us more fruits of this unique collaboration.
