Book Blitz - Excerpt & Giveaway - All the Wrong Places by Randi Perrin

All the Wrong Places 
Randi Perrin 
Publication date: June 25th 2019
Genres: Adult, Comedy, Romance
American-born, Australian-raised Rachel Kennedy was born to be an actress–all the way down to her drama queen ways. But when a bad day leaves her life and her dream in ruins, she’s not sure what to do next. Her silver spoon-upbringing never prepared her for that.
With a bank account at nothing and an inability to pull off a convincing accent for casting directors, Rachel’s about to give up on everything. Not on her best friend’s watch. Lily is there to help her every step of the way–if the definition of help involves convincing her to take drastic measures, each one blowing up more than the one that came before.
Once Lily shoves Rachel into the let’s-get-drunk-and-screw-a-stranger phase, she winds up tangled in the arms of Christian Whitmore, a cop with a sinful smile, sexy stubble, and impeccable timing. He’s there to pick her up when she falls and to take her out for fish and chips at her favourite place.
But then again, so is his identical twin brother, Kevin. Double. Trouble.
Stuck at a major crossroads in her life, can Rachel ever find happiness again, or is she just looking in all the wrong places?

EXCERPT:

“Whatever, prude.” Lily jerked the beer off the table and chugged until the bottle was empty. “Then we’re going out to find more alcohol and a distraction. Preferably a muscled one with a huge dick who can fuck the heartache right out of you.”“No, I don’t think that’s the best idea.”“It’s a fan-fucking-tastic idea.”“Yeah, that’s what I need, to do exactly what he did to me.” I struggled to get off Lily’s couch, finally wrestling my butt free from the couch monster. I walked to the bathroom with Lily not far behind.“In one day, you lost your flat, your job and your boyfriend proved to be a complete loser who fucked your nemesis. You don’t think an awesome lay will help you forget all of that? You clearly haven’t had good sex.”“I just don’t have it in me tonight.”Lily shoved my shoulder. “Of course you don’t have it in you. We’re going out to find it to put in you.”


Lily Interviews Rachel Pop Culture edition for Xpresso tours

LM: What would you do without me? 
RK: I’d wear crappy costumes.
LM: And?
RK: I’d drink better wine?
LM: Bitch, without me, you wouldn’t have any wine to drink. The correct answer was ‘NOTHING. You would do nothing without me.’ Let’s try again. Next question: Who wears the pants? 
RK: What kind of question is that?
LM: A good one.
RK: You do, I guess.
LM: *rolling eyes* Bzzzzz. The correct answer was ‘we don’t wear pants.’ You are really sucking at this one.
RK: Girl, you’ve been laid more recently than I have. Which means I’m wearing pants. Or a chastity belt. Or something.
LM: Or something. Okay, you can’t get this one wrong… Kill, f*ck, marry...and go! 
RK: That’s such a loaded question. Kill, Kanye. For sure. Screw, there are a lot of good answers here. Um, Darren Hayes?
LM: Is that a question or an answer?
RK: An answer.
LM: Damn straight.
RK: *laughing* No, no he’s not.
LM: Okay, and who do you marry?
RK: Who else but my red-headed prince of Wales. 
LM: Duke of Sussex, but who’s counting? Okay, another easy one for you… Kindle or books?
RK: It doesn’t really matter to me, but my Kindle is more portable and I can get loads of free books on it. So I’ll say Kindle.
LM: Didn’t you tell me the last few free ones you downloaded were utter and complete shit?
RK: *gasp* I would never say that about a book.
LM: Yeah. Okay. Whatever you say, Pinocchio. Moving on, if you could go back in time, what decade would you visit? 
RK: Easiest question ever. The eighties. 
LM: Look at that, she finally got one right. Though, let’s face it, the neon colors of the 80s and your complexion just aren’t a good combination.
RK: But the music. The movies. All worth it.
LM: I won’t argue that. All right, last question: What’s your stripper song? You have one so don’t lie!
RK: I don’t strip.
LM: But you do dance. For a living, I might add, such as that living is. So picture yourself on the pole at the club and tell me what’s playing.
RK: Anything?
LM: Within reason. Don’t go busting out some showtunes. Cause we don’t strip to showtunes.
RK: *snaps fingers in disappointment* Oh, I got it.
[sings] Never gonna give you up / Never gonna let you down / Never gonna run around and desert you.

LM: Did… did you just Rick roll me?
RK: *smug smile*
LM: This interview is over.


Author Bio:
English may be Randi's first language, but she's the most fluent in sarcasm, and it shows in her writing. She is known for creating snarky, realistic characters--badass heroines who can hold their own and flawed, yet lovable heroes. Like Randi, her characters run on caffeine and swear words.
Her characters are often built around dichotomy, much like Randi herself. Although she is the least romantic person in the world, she writes romance. She also refuses to pick a lane on the romance highway, sometimes writing contemporary, other times paranormal, but always smokin' hot.
She is the author of the Earthbound Angels paranormal romance series, several contemporary romance novellas including Anticipating Temptation and Mi Amor, and a gay romance novella entitled Wreck You. She has also had several short stories published in anthologies. Her next full-length novel, a romantic comedy entitled All the Wrong Places, will be out in Summer 2019.
