Rachel is represented by Pete Knapp of Park & Fine Literary and Media. She lives with her husband, small dog, and growing collection of houseplants. When she isn’t writing, you can find her wandering the PNW, reading by the fire, or drinking copious amounts of coffee and tea. She now writes full-time from her home in the Seattle area. She worked in healthcare for five years and taught ultrasound at her alma mater before making the switch to a small startup. On her path to writing novels, Rachel graduated from Seattle University with a Bachelor of Science in diagnostic ultrasound. She adores moody skies and thunderstorms, and hopes more vampires settle down in her beloved state of Washington. She is the New York Times bestselling author of The Nature of Witches, Wild is the Witch, and the forthcoming Bring Me Your Midnight, releasing from Sourcebooks Fire in summer 2023.īorn and raised in the Pacific Northwest, Rachel has a deep love of nature, from the mountains to the ocean and all the towering evergreens in between. Rachel Griffin writes young adult novels inspired by the magic of the world around her. Iris begs Pike to help her track the bird, and they set out on a trek through the Pacific Northwest looking for a single bird that could destroy everything. And the Witches' Council does not look kindly on multiple offenses if they found out, Iris could be stripped of her magic for good. New witches have no idea how to control their magic and the consequences would be dire. If the bird dies, the curse will be unleashed―and the bird is a powerful amplifier, and unleashing the curse would turn not just Pike, but everyone in the region, into a witch.
But just as she's about to dispel it, a bird swoops down and steals the curse before flying away. Iris concocts the perfect curse for Pike: one that will turn him into a witch. Otherwise, she spends her days at the wildlife refuge which would be the perfect job if not for Pike Alder, the witch-hating aspiring ornithologist who interns with them.
Now settled in Washington, Iris never lets anyone see who she really is instead, she vents her frustrations by writing curses she never intends to cast. And while the Witches' Council was lenient in their punishment, Iris knows they're keeping tabs on her. When she was forced to leave her last home, she left behind a father who was no longer willing to start over. Iris Gray knows witches aren't welcome in most towns.
When eighteen-year-old witch Iris Gray accidentally enacts a curse that could have dire consequences, she must team up with a boy who hates witches to make sure her magic isn't unleashed on the world.
