A Fall Together - Book One Meet Lauren, Irene, Eleanor, Pam, Tonya, Stephaine, and Suz. Friendship has been called a well-worn path between two homes. But for these seven women, it's a divinely routed roadmap to a small Southern town, where hearts intersect and will never again uncross, come what may. Real life, with its greatest hurts and grandest dreams, is the basis for their stories as told in A Fall Together, the first book in a new fiction series from actress Jennifer O`Neill. Varied in age, ethnicity, background, and economic status, these characters are united by their spiritual crossroads and the determination to face their personal issues with brave hope. In this opening season, they will laugh, cry, and pray together over a breast cancer diagnosis, a troubled ex-husband, struggling teenage children, and other major matters of the heart. It`s a time of coming together, when so much around them is falling apart. A Winter of Wonders - Book Two Book two in the faith-centered CIRCLE OF FRIENDS... JUST OFF MAIN series for women, reveals even more of the complexities taking place among the most socially diverse yet strongly united ladies in a small Southern town. Will there ever be peace between at-odds sisters Lauren and Irene? Will Pam and Tanya fulfill the desires of their hearts? Does the troublesome budding romance between Irene's teenage daughter and local basketball star Trace stand a chance? Will the hardscrabble times of Trace's widowed mom Stephanie ever let up? And what will life be like for Stephanie's prayer group friend Elenore after a major health scare? In this wintery season of each woman's spiritual journey, there are more than a few icy moments and still plenty of times for merciful warmth, humor and friendship. While some can only wonder what drama will unfold next, others marvel at the wonders of God's grace. A Late Spring Frost - Book Three But a cold snap can threaten the season's greatest gifts. A Late Spring Frost, book three in the faith-centered CIRCLE OF FRIENDS...

As the dogwood trees start to bud, a surprising romance rekindles for Lauren; a business dream blooms for long-suffering waitress Stephanie; and a new modeling career for Tonya sparks a move with her young son to New York City. But these joys are tempered by urgent struggles happening inside the circle of friends.

As the clouds roll in, only faith can keep this circle unbroken through the storms of life. *** I apologize for the delayed release of book #4 in the "Circle" series. (Publisher's decision.) I hope to complete writing it this year - I'll keep you posted. Jen xo *** _______________________________________________________________________ A Few Reviews... “I love your book and I just completed A Late Spring Frost. There has to be a book four in the works!” “I just finished the third book in the series. How dare you keep us hanging like you did at the end of this book! How long before the fourth book comes out? I can NOT wait!!!” “I have read the first three books and looking forward to the fourth book. Once I started reading, I couldn't put them down. You really get lost in the realness of the characters and their situations... everyday women. They would probibly be friends of mine.” “Interlacing the trials and tribulation of a close-knit group of Southern women allows O’Neill the opportunity to explore many current social situations such as teen pregnancy and divorce. Her characters encompass many different ages, religious denominations, ethnicities, and beliefs, creating a circle of friends that is a rich tapestry… A comforting read of friendship and faith.”
