About
Nicola S. Dorrington is a 30 year-old writer from England, currently living in the Cayman Islands, where she procrastinates by staring at the ocean.
THE LAST KNIGHT was her first novel, set in a wet and mythical version of the country she left behind.
CHASING FREEDOM, her second novel shows a slightly different, but still mythical, side to her old home.
She fully expects to one day be a crazy old cat lady - only with dogs.

Story Behind The Book
The characters for Chasing Freedom were created almost ten years ago - they've changed and grown over the years, much as I have. The versions of them in this book are almost unrecognisable from the original creations, apart from Chase Finn, he hasn't changed too much!
