Perilous Waif (Alice Long Book 1) by E. William Brown. Only one in the series so far. Hardish space opera with a main character that doesn't know much about herself. She was picked up as a young child from a pirate base and dropped off by a navy ship at the closest orphanage.
I enjoyed the author's examinations of what things like gene engineering and nanotech can mean to humanity. For example when she runs away to get off planet because she does not fit in and figures they'll make her fit by mental conditioning she finally talks to a doctor she trusts. She asks why her internal medical monitor has been saying she needs EMS for years. Turns out that's electronic medical supplement, supplies the trace elements your body needs to grow new electronics.
