Gil McNeil’s standalone novels span over a decade of contemporary women’s fiction. The Only Boy For Me (2001) was her first novel, followed by Stand by Your Man (2004). In the Wee Small Hours (2011) and A Good Year for the Roses (2014) came later in her career, alongside the Beach Street Knitting Society series.
Each book stands on its own as a separate story. The titles suggest the romantic and domestic themes that run through McNeil’s work, focusing on relationships and the small crises that shape everyday life.
