Even in Eden
Even in Eden is a sapphic, dark, lyrical reimagining of the biblical creation story, told through the seemingly forbidden love between Eve and Lilith. Eve awakens not through solely temptation, but through connection to Lilith, the first woman cast out for refusing submission.
As Eve learns to see the Eden beyond, she begins to question the nature of love, desire, and the cost of free will. Lilith, fierce and guarded, embodies a truth long denied: that autonomy is not a sin, and love need not be sanctioned to be sacred. Together, their bond becomes the true catalyst for Eve's transformation, one that cannot be undone.
Blending myth, sensuality, and psychological depth, Even in Eden explores themes of religious trauma, forbidden love, identity, and awakening. This novel centers queer desire as revelation rather than transgression, reframing a familiar story through a lens of reclamation and defiance.
Written in poetic prose and rich symbolism, Even in Eden is a story for readers drawn to mythic retellings, dark romance, and narratives that challenge inherited truths. It asks what happens when the story you were given is not the one meant for you.
Back Cover Blurb:
"This was never a man's story"
You've heard the story of the fall of man.
The Original Sin.
But what if there is more to the story?
What if in the beginning
it was women who fell...for each other.
Eve walks the garden beside Adam, adored & content,
yet haunted by dreams she cannot name.
When she meets Lilith,
the woman who came before her,
the one time tried to erase, those dreams become flesh.
This is the story of temptation,
just not the one you were told.
Lilith is the forbidden fruit, and Eve is hungry.
Even in Eden is a dark, sensual reclaiming of the first love story.
