In no particular order:

"Twilight's Wrath"
"Make Believe"
"The Calling"
"As Others See Us"
"Eighteen Minutes"

Bonus: "The Ceremony of Innocence is Drowned"
 
^ I made my list before I scrolled down to see responses, and it was literally identical.
 
Somewhat arbitrarily, these:

Chaotic Response by Stuart Moore
Friends With the Sparrows by Christopher L. Bennett
Make Believe by Allyn Gibson
Safe Harbors, by Howard Weinstein
Foundlings by Jeffrey Lang
 
Can't make any further recommendations since I'm awful at remembering titles... but one thing's for certain: "Make Believe" is a must read.
 
Hmmm, I'll go with these:

Face Value by Una McCormack
Friends With the Sparrows by Christopher L. Bennett
The Calling by Andrew J. Robinson
Foundlings by Jeffery Lang
Eighteen Minutes by Terri Osborne
 
Actually the lines "edit Connections" and "edit External links" showing up in that list indicate that it's cut and pasted from somewhere else, probably Memory Alpha or Beta.
 
I haven't read too many, but from what I can recall (forgive me if I get the titles wrong):

"Make-Believe" by Allyn Gibson, from Constellations (one of the best pieces of TrekLit ever)
"Fracture" by Jeff Bond, from Constellations
"Letting Go" by Keith R. A. DeCandido, from Distant Shores
"Pain Management" by Peter David, from Tales From the Captain's Table
"Command Code" by Robert Greenberger, from Distant Shores (this story nailed the 1st season vibe of Voyager).
