Book Cover & Preview Text
As soon as they had eaten the fruit, they knew that they had done wrong. God went into the Garden to search for Adam and Eve. He knew they were hiding from Him. He was very sad, for He knew that their life was going to change from that moment on! Life did change for Adam and Eve! They got kicked out of the Garden. It was a sad day for every living thing that had come to love Adam and Eve. Sadly Adam and Eve accepted their punishment and left the beautiful Garden. As they walked from the Garden of Eden, Adam picked up a stick and said to Eve, “Wow, God is really mad at us, Eve; I never thought I would get kicked out of the Garden. What are we going to do?” “Who are you asking Adam? I can’t believe it myself. I should have just walked away when that sidewinding serpent started talking to me.” “Yeah, Adam replied, “maybe God forgot to put some things in you when He took my rib from me to create you! But how can that be? God is perfect. I had everything, and then we had everything, and now poof—like that, it’s gone! What are we going to do, Eve?” “What do you mean maybe God forgot to put some things in me? Don’t forget, I did come from your rib; maybe something was missing in the rib! And besides; He made you master over me, so master us out of this mess. You should have known better, Adam; you were here before I was. You should have told me about the serpent, and maybe I wouldn’t have been tricked so easily.”

About the Book
After enduring many failed relationships, I started to wonder how things between man and woman got so out of hand. Who was the originator of it all? Then I thought Adam and Eve, they were the ones who started this craziness of mistrust, confusion, and turmoil between man and woman. So I went to the Bible and started reading how and why man was created and why God created woman for man. I took my Bible, past experiences, and imagination to the keyboard. I wanted to give readers something that they could relate to with humor and spirituality to give hope to struggling relationships! So I said to myself, It may be difficult, but it can be done!
