Daisy Penrose

Daisy Penrose writes warm, funny, and sharply observed fiction about midlife, community, and the chaos of starting over.

Her Life at Paradise Park series is set in a British seaside holiday park where the residents — many unofficially permanent — form a lively, unconventional community. Through mishaps, misunderstandings, and moments of unexpected connection, Daisy explores what it means to rebuild a life when things haven’t gone to plan.

She also writes the Time-Tangled series, following Mitzi Spinelli, a Canterbury shop owner whose collection of unusual objects has a habit of pulling her into the past to right historical wrongs. Blending time travel, mystery, and humour, these stories bring history to life with warmth and wit.

Perfect for readers who love relatable characters, British settings, and humour grounded in real life.
