Welcome to my web site. I’m Penny Jordan. I’ve been a published author for many years, I write as both as Penny Jordan and as Annie Groves (www.anniegroves.co.uk) My Annie Groves books are set in Liverpool, which is where the paternal side of my father’s family originated from.

They are ‘Liverpool Sagas’ set mainly in the WW2 period. You can read more about them and how I write them on my Annie Groves web site (www.anniegroves.co.uk)

This new Penny Jordan web site marks the start of an exciting new development in my writing career in that it will feature the books I shall be writing as Penny Jordan for Avon/Harpercollins.

My new books are already involving me in a huge amount of research and I shall be sharing some of this with you, including my reading list for my research, and the fascinating journey on which this research often takes me.

These will be mainstream books. They will reflect the changes in our society and how those changes impact on our lives as women. They will still feature family and personal relationships and everything that goes with those things, but on a much ‘bigger scale’.

The books will be packed with characters enduring the sometimes gritty realities of life; intrigue, trauma, lust and despair along with family ties, glamour, excitement, the power of love, and women who I hope will touch your hearts as much as they do mine.

This is going to be a hugely exciting writing adventure for me and I hope you will share it with me. Writing about people and their relationships, the problems they meet in life and the way they overcome them – or don’t - has always been my first writing love and I am delighted to be returning to that and to be writing ‘the books of my heart’.
