Rachel Spangler never set out to be a New York Times-reviewed author. They were just so poor during seven years of college that they had to come up with creative forms of cheap entertainment. Their debut novel, Learning Curve, was born out of one such attempt. Since writing is more fun than a real job and so much cheaper than therapy, they continued to type away, leading to the publication of Timeless, The Long Way Home, LoveLife, Spanish Heart, Does She Love You, Timeless, Heart of The Game, Perfect Pairing, Close to Home, Edge of Glory, In Development, Love All, Full English, Spanish Surrender, Fire and Ice, Straight Up, Modern English, Thrust, Plain English, Heartstrings, Christmas Mouse, Seeking Approval, Quiver, Informed Consent, and Relationship Material. Now a four-time Lambda Literary Award finalist, an IPPY, Goldie, and Rainbow Award winner, and the 2018 Alice B. Reader recipient, Rachel plans to continue writing as long as anyone, anywhere, will keep reading. In 2018 Spangler joined the Bywater Books substantive editing team and worked their way up to the rank of senior romance editor. They now proudly offer substantive editing services for private clients and love having the opportunity to mentor young authors. In 2025 they founded their own publishing LLC called Bigger Table Books to further embody their commitment to creating safe and inclusive spaces to tell queer stories. Known to friends as Rey, Spangler lives in Western New York with wife, Susan and son, Jackson. Their family spends the long winters curling and skiing. In the summer, they love to travel and watching their beloved St. Louis Cardinals. Regardless of the season, Rachel always makes time for a good romance, whether reading it, writing it, or living it.
