Yeah, I completely understand - I suggest you start with her Emelan universe in that case, because that one doesn't have any age-gaps relationships at all.
It's the Tortall one with the age-gaps - it was written first, and you can be assured that there won't be any large age-gaps in any of her latter work. The age-gap relationship is specifically present in the Immortals quartet, and there is a much milder one in the Alanna quartet which I didn't take much notice of because I wasn't really focussed on figuring out the years between the characters (7 yr difference) when reading that quartet). If you like her style, then try the Tortall 'verse and see if you can overlook it or just skip the Immortals quartet - it's not a huge focus of the books.
