Romance: Garrus ME2, None in ME1
Why Shepard and her LI are such a great match:
Kiera's parents planned for her to be in the military from a
young age. She originally joined simply because she had to. But as she climbed the ranks, she began to see that although her parents had wanted her in the military for the wrong reasons, she could still do things her way. She began a plan to make a difference. Garrus and Kiera are a great match because Garrus also wants to make a difference in the world. But, he's more lighthearted. He balances her, keeps her grounded, and keeps her calm. She need someone like that, someone who can understand what she's been through.
Best Friends:
Miranda (close due to the shared "insensitive overbearing father" thing
Garrus (friend turned romantic interest)
Personality:
Aloof, stuck up, has a wild temper, and can be very manipulative in a charming, polite way. She knows about fighting, as she grew up on military ships and was practically bred to be a soldier. She knows what she wants, and she absolutely will step on people to get there. However, she isn't evil. What she wants is to make an impact and change the world. She does care about her squad mates and will go out of her way for them, though it's sometimes unclear whether this is simply to gain their loyalty or not. She is lonely, though, and resents her childhood and her upbringing to be a soldier. She views what she is doing as "making the most of it". She hates her father (think Illusive Man type of guy) and as a result, has a rebellious streak, almost like she's rebelling against everyone else because she never could against her father. Overall, she is strong and silent, not letting many people close, but once she does make a bond, it stays for life.
Three fun facts:
1) Went deaf at age 6. She now has cybernetic implants to counteract this. Keeps this very, very secret.
2) Hates to lose. Very protective of her dignified air, and will allow no one to break it down.
3) She was actually a character in a story I wrote. I just used her for Mass Effect for fun.

Romance: Thane, Kaidan in ME1
Why Shepard and her LI are such a great match:
Reia has a motherly streak. She's caring and strong, but also open. She understands people, and loves children. She know what she is fighting for though. She wants to keep people safe. She's seen pain, though, and her whole squad died on Akuze, many of whom she was very close to. She keeps a smile on her face, though. She connects with Thane, understands him, and he her. She understands what it's like to be full of love and compassion, and want a family, but also to know fighting, and suffering and terrible pain. They keep each other going, despite all the tough roads ahead.
Best Friends:
Thane
Kaidan (well, not anymore)
Personality:
Kind, motherly, caring, but also daring and ambitious. She has a strong moral compass, and hates crime and cheating, but she's willing to work with criminals if she needs to, or if they have something she needs. Undercover work is a specialty of hers. Overall, she sees the big picture and wants to help people of all races. Idealistic, but also practical.
Three fun facts:
1) Has an adopted daughter back home being cared for by her parents while she's away, named Cosette.
2) She has a unique, experimental biotic implant. It's highly advanced but comes with some nasty side effects.
3) She is a character from the same story as Kiera.
