Romance For Puerto Rico

My co-writer Heather Lire and I write as Kenzie MacLir, and in our latest story, we have a Puerto Rican heroine. We were going to help anyway, but felt that it was only fitting to enter our latest book as an ARC in the Romance for Puerto Rico auction.

In the early hours of Tuesday January 7, 2020, parts of the island of Puerto Rico were devastated by a series of strong earthquakes resulting in the loss of lives, collapsed buildings, loss of electricity for nearly three million residents and left hundreds of thousands of people without running water. The earthquakes are still happening. People are living in open-air shelters rather than risk moving back to their homes. There are a confirmed 700 + destroyed homes and much more damage to infrastructure in the area. Help is needed and quickly.

The Romance for PR silent auction will raise funds for The Hispanic Federation and World Central Kitchen. As you read this, these organizations are in Puerto Rico providing much-needed relief for those affected by the earthquakes, many still recovering from the effects of Hurricane Maria which made landfall in September of 2017.

I'll post our tentative blurb for Roughing It, the latest installment in the New York Empires series.
Our story is called Against the Boards and it follows Kyle Sandberg, hotshot forward, and best friend to Reiner Jahr, the hero from Change it Up in the Icing the Puck anthology. The three stories are written together, each author has a different teammate. Look for a female goalie, a billionaire hockey player, and some werewolves. Enjoy!

When werewolf and professional hockey player Kyle Sandberg left Sweden as an eighteen year old to play in the NHL he had no clue the sacrifices he’d have to make. The biggest one though was leaving his family and pack behind. 

Faith Church moved to NYC because she figured such a big city was the very last place she’d ever run into any wolves or a pack. She had enough pack politics growing up. Getting involved with the brother of the new pack leader for Brooklyn is the very last thing she should be doing. There’s just something about him though that has her dropping all of her inhibitions.

My Workspace

On Twitter some of us were talking about our workspaces, and I figured I ought to share that over here.

About 5 years ago or so we moved into a house that has a downstairs room. I used to write in the loft of our old house, because that's where the computer was, but now? I had an office. I was so excited for this! And then I discovered that at night, which is primarily when I write, I don't like being tucked away downstairs away from the sleeping family. I'm so contrary! First the loft was too busy, now the office is too lonely...Okay Goldilocks, which is just right?

I felt guilty since I had kept asking for an office and I finally had one to myself, so I kept at it, but mostly ended up at the dinner table. It made it easier to hear the baby monitor (it didn't reach to the office) and watch the kids. But as the kids got older, they started taking it over. My husband built them a pretty cool hideout and rock wall. Do you know how hard it is to work with someone hanging above you like it's a jungle gym? So. Hard.


As the baby got older, I started working in my room. She played a lot in my room and I would sit on my bed or the floor. After a while, my neck and back would bother me from typing in bed. I kept mentioning getting a small cushioned bench or couch for the foot of the bed, but my husband surprised me last year and bought a floating desk that folds away.

So while I still work in my room, now I'm at least at a desk. And I don't have to share it with the kids. Although they are in my room constantly. But I've discovered that I don't mind the noise. :)
