Talking with author Erzabet Bishop today....
Can you please tell us about your
latest/upcoming book(s)?
Hi Dawn and thanks for having me.
I'm Erzabet Bishop and my latest book is called Holidays in Hell. It's about an incubus who has one more soul to
claim for his contract…but he falls for her instead.
How did you come with the idea for
this story?
The idea originally came to me for
an anthology topic. Christmas and kink. You just can't get better than that for
subject matter. Think about all the naughty ideas you can come up with for
garlands and candy canes. I'll say no more…
Who is your ultimate "book
boy/girlfriend"? You know, that hottie you read about and drool over.
Every single one. Lol. I have to fall a little in
love with the characters of each book I read or I just put it down and walk away.
Who is your Celebrity crush? And
what would you do if you ever meet them?
That's a good question. I so
rarely watch television. Maybe the cast from American Horror Story. Now that
would me amazing. So would meeting Laura Antoniou or Anne Rice.
If you could collaborate with
another author on a secret project, who would you pick to work with and why?
I have never collaborated save for
group projects for an anthology or a box set. It would be amazing to work with
New York Times or USA Today bestselling authors to see how they handle things
differently…It just so happens I am involved with a group right now with some
of those very traits so I'll let you know what I find out.
Holidays in Hell

Blurb:
Deck the halls with all things kinky. Jonas is an incubus
with an incurable lust for gingerbread and holiday lights. When he finds
himself falling for Holly Pendleton, the woman he has marked as the final soul
to end his contract, he faces a heart wrenching decision: take what he needs to
feed his hunger or sacrifice himself for the woman who has lit his own demonic
soul on fire. Tied up with red ribbons, Holly just might be Jonas's deepest
Christmas wish and the one woman who could set him free.
Excerpt:
"It's twisted." Mallory sniped, her tone coolly
disapproving. Grabbing Jonas by the arm, they trudged down the main street of
the Old Towne shopping district, dodging tourists and rabid consumers on a
mission.
"What?"
"You’ve lost your mind completely. Here? At a shopping
mall? Seriously?"
"Why not? It's not like they'll even notice."
Jonas glanced in Mallory's direction and stared after the white coat of a woman
he'd just seen in the crowd. It was strange, but it almost seemed like she was
following them. Jonas didn't care. He stuffed the panic down and resumed his
vigil. Somewhere out there was his last conquest. He just had to find her.
Holiday music piped through the air and the smell of
chestnuts roasting wafted toward the crowd. The Carver Hills Old Towne Winter
Carnival was in full force and it warmed Jonas’s soul to see it. Throwing
caution to the wind, he let out another burst of energy and sent it spiraling
into the crowd. What could it hurt? He was here on a shopping expedition of his
own, and it wasn’t for the latest transforming doll or gadget. Nope. Lust was
his mission. He was hungry.
"Because..." Mallory's voice trailed off as she
patted the squirming dog in her purse. Terrance yipped and gave an indignant
growl. Stuffed into a red sweater, the little black Chihuahua looked absolutely
miserable.
"Oh my God,
Jonas. Why do you have to always pick the toughest crowd? It's a needle in a
haystack."
“You’re entitled to your opinion. I, for one, am going to
check things out and find something, or someone, to eat." Jonas's lips curved
up in a smile at Mallory's irritated and completely unladylike snort.
"Mallory, if I want a cheeseburger I'll go to a
drive-through. I want something a little more substantial. And that means I'm
going to have to work for it, okay?"
She stared at him, a mutinous look on her face. Terrance
yipped and she reached down absently to pet him. He shook, trying to curl
himself into a ball inside Mallory's large gold purse but having a hard time.
"You'd better get him in out of the cold. The little
guy's shaking like a leaf."
"He's fine," she snapped.
"Okay. Don't say I didn't warn you when his little
bladder decides it's time to void all over your cell."
"Ugh! Jonas. That's disgusting. Terrence wouldn't do
that, would you, honey?" Mallory reached down and gave the dog a kiss on
the top of his smooth black head.
The dog whined and shook.
"Go on, Mal. I'll be fine." Please. So I can get
down to business.
He knew what he
wanted. Lust was, after all, his personal vice of the seven deadlies. It really
didn't matter the form. It was usually sex that got people into trouble, but
any old lust would do. And right now, he wanted to indulge in a little
proclivity of his own. If Mallory would leave him the hell alone, that is. The
need was there and it was clawing at his gut relentlessly. But so was the
desire to revel in the holidays. If things went badly, it would be his last
ride on the bus, so to speak. He didn’t want to miss a thing.
This was his most
favorite time of year. Christmas. Twinkling lights. Tacky reindeer yard
ornaments. Tinsel. Garlands. Ah, the things you could do with a garland. A
little tricky rope work and a willing partner and you had yourself your own
little bondage Christmas carol. A happy smile tilted up the corner of his
mouth. It was funny as Hell, really. A lust demon with a fetish for Christmas
ornaments.
