Republican-Era Stories, No Couples, and No Brain-Dead Writing

Nothing ridiculously over-the-top with numbers like 999.9 billion, and no System either. I like stories where people achieve their goals through their own hard work. Any protagonist gender is fine, but no pregnancy-and-running-away plots or vague romantic tension with someone.

In another 20-something percent, she has a family, but every member is awful. Are there any well-written, enjoyable period novels that don't follow this pattern?
