 Theory : First Person vs. Third Person
First person is not always best and I'll go along with third person being a good choice for her story because of the multiple POV characters.
While I like third person, I much prefer first person, and as for the reader having trouble identifying with a protagonist of the oposite gender in first person, the same holds true in third person.
I like to use on occasion what I call "Third person detached," in which the narrarator is a character with personality, but completely uninvolved in the action going on in the story.

 First-person narrative - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Examples: William Faulkner in A Rose for Emily (Faulkner was an avid experimenter in using unusual points of view - see his Spotted Horses, told in third person plural), and more recently, Jeffrey Eugenides, in his novel The Virgin Suicides.
A strength of first-person narrative is that the character may also express feelings, thoughts, and experiences, and may reveal him or herself; therefore, the reader usually gains keen insight into the life of the narrator.
For this reason, first-person narrative is often used for detective fiction, so that the reader and narrator uncover the case together.

 INFORMATION RELEVANCE AND RECOGNITION MEMORY: FIRST, SECOND, AND THIRD PERSON NARRATIVES
Narratives ranged from least relevant (third-person story presentation, with an abstract protagonist) to somewhat relevant (first-person presentation, with the experimenter as protagonist) to most relevant (second-person presentation, with participants imagining themselves to be the protagonists).
Furthermore, participants who heard the second- person presentation were expected to score higher on a recognition test than participants exposed to the less personally relevant narratives, and those in the first-person condition were expected to score higher than participants exposed to the third-person narrative.
In the present study, it was assumed that personal relevance would be established by requesting the participant to imagine himself or herself in the role of the main character (indicated by the second-person narrative voice).

 Lymond at Mac.com - Notes Toward the Poetics of an Interactive Fiction
Dramatic narratives employ, perforce, the third-person narrative almost exclusively, whether it is a play (and its players) presented before, and hence, separate from, its audience; or whether it is a film, where the camera represents the invisible third-person narrator.
Narrative fictions, whether in first- or third-person, whether visual, written, or oral, take the audience out of themselves, let them identify with a life or lives other than their own.
Third, the artist must realize that interactive fiction may be a new thing, but it will derive much of its power from the very human love of the tale, which has existed since before movies, before printed books, before manuscripts, and maybe even before cave paintings.

 Third-person shooter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A third-person shooter is a genre of 3D video games where the camera view is outside and thought of as usually being behind the main player character, its name chosen for the number of third-person video games whose gameplay is derivative of first-person shooters.
The Resident Evil series, though it incorporated both third-person gameplay and shooting, was not considered a third-person shooter until Resident Evil 4; because of the emphasis on adventure and survival, this was called survival horror.
See Category:Third-person shooters for a list of games that fall into either of these categories, though it is far from complete.

 First-person shooter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Many third-person shooters (where the player sees the game world from a viewpoint above and behind the main character) are commonly treated as first-person shooters, due to similarities in gameplay.
The run and gun shooter is a fast paced, all-about-action type of first person shooter, often containing a large number of enemies.
First-person shooters have been subject to substantial controversy due to the levels of violence included in some games, and the visual realism that can be more inherent in the shooting of things in a first-person perspective.

 Game Research - the art, business, and science of computer games
This all-seeing third person perspective was hardly a very conscious choice, but was obviously a near-necessity when contemporary processing power was taken into account.
Through the 1980s the first person perspective was often used to lend a certain intensity to racing and flying games.
Since this is meant to simulate that the player himself experiences the action it can be called the first person perspective.

 Halfbakery: 2nd Person Shooter
My idea for a cool 2nd person shooter (SPS) is that it is played as a third person shooter (TPS), but when you hit someone, it reverts into a 2nd person view, where the camera is located slightly behind the target and you see them being shot.
But the whole point of me saying this is that, as the opponent is catching on fire, you see it from a third person perspective, but you are actually seeing it from second person, but it is played out in third.
In a 2nd person shooter video game, the player would control the guns, but see the action from the perspective of the person (monster?) he or she is shooting.

 Encyclopedia article on First-person shooter [EncycloZine]
However in practice the term is used to describe a very specific genre of game with a first person view, almost always centered around the act of aiming and shooting with multiple styles of weapons and limited ammunition.
First-person shooters have been subject to substantial controversy due to their levels of violence and the realism inherent in the first person perspective.
It can be considered a sub-genre of shooter game s, though almost all other two dimensional shooter games, especially shoot-em-ups, are more concerned with the gameplay mechanic of dodging then of precise aiming.
