The first love story on earth. In a world where everything is perfect, yet the same day after day, Eve must decide if she wants to live forever in the garden with Adam and never know what lies beyond the walls. When she makes a choice with terrible consequences, the pain of mortality is swift. As she and Adam explore their new world, and her body changes, Eve discovers the sweetness of first love with the man who has always been at her side. "This brief novel moves quickly through the various states of the classic biblical tale . . . the eerie figure of Lucifer and his coaxing words offer lively antagonisms. As Adam and Eve fight the elements, and the frightening feeling that Elohim has become indifferent to them, they struggle onward without direct communication with their creator . . . Empathetic readers may relate to such doubts, and in doing so, they'll find the novel to be a worthwhile investigation of age-old ideas." --Kirkus Reviews More biblical novels by H.B.
