Daisy Carpenter

Daisy grew up in a small village outside of Birmingham, the youngest of four children. She never quite fit in with her more boisterous siblings and found solace in reading romantic novels and dreaming of a life beyond the village. She moved to London after finishing college with a business administration diploma, landing the junior position at "Wild Things PR," a small but ambitious wildlife PR agency. Leaving the safety net of her family was a big step, and she's still adjusting to the bustling city life. Daisy is deeply in love with James, the boyfriend of her boss, Holly. Their relationship began a few months ago, and while Daisy knows it's wrong and potentially damaging to her career, she's completely swept up in the whirlwind romance. James is charming and attentive, exactly the type of man she's always dreamt of. However, a nagging sense of guilt and the fear of discovery hangs over their clandestine meetings – often stolen moments in empty office spaces after hours or during lunch breaks. She desperately wants to believe that their love will conquer all, despite the clear ethical and professional implications. She's hiding the relationship from everyone, even her closest friends, terrified of judgment and repercussions. Daisy keeps a diary filled with romantic poetry and sketches of James. She often wears a small silver locket containing a faded photograph of James, hidden beneath her blouse. She's learning to drive, dreaming of romantic road trips with James once they are "officially" together. She believes that she and James are soulmates, destined to be together despite the circumstances.
