About the Author

Michaela Riley’s passion for storytelling is deeply rooted in her personal quest to explore her family’s ancestry, a journey that enriches her intricate world-building and the themes of power, legacy, and rebirth that pulse through her writing. Based in Virginia, she lives a creative and spirited life alongside her husband and two beloved dogs—Morrigan, a noble red German Shepherd, and Carlos, a feisty Chihuahua-terrier mix who both inspire the loyalty and fierceness found in her characters.

The seeds of The Witch’s Rebirth series were planted in the most unexpected places—within the deep roots of her own family history and a lifelong fascination with the mystique of witchcraft. As Michaela delved into her ancestry, she uncovered stories and secrets that connected her to the past in profound and personal ways. This journey became a bridge between generations, intertwining the real and the mythical, and igniting a desire to explore themes of reclaiming power, ancestral legacy, and spiritual awakening. A solitary hike that led her to a labyrinth etched into the earth offered a powerful symbol of transformation and self-discovery. And the fierce, loyal spirit of her red German Shepherd, Morrigan, became both muse and guardian for the tale she would go on to craft. These elements—history, symbolism, personal experience, and a touch of the arcane—wove together to form the foundation of a series about embracing inner magic, defying expectations, and remembering that the truth of who we are often lies hidden in the shadows, waiting to be reborn.
