Introducing: After Eden
Dark Romance • Psychological Romance
After Eden follows Eva, a woman who escaped the isolated religious community that raised her, and Cain, the man sent to bring her back. What begins as an act of obedience becomes a reckoning with faith, autonomy, complicity, desire, and the world that shaped them both.
Status: Beta reading underway • Revisions to follow • Targeting 2027
A glimpse into the story
"After Eden" begins with a woman who already did the impossible: Eva escaped the Garden, the isolated religious community that raised her, and built a life beyond its reach. Years later, the Garden finally finds her.
Cain has spent his life serving the only world he has ever known. When he is sent to retrieve the woman he still knows as Rebekah, bringing her home should be another act of obedience. Instead, Eva becomes a living challenge to everything he has been taught about sin, loyalty, punishment, and choice.
Forced back into the place she fought to escape, Eva refuses to become Rebekah again. And as Cain begins to see the Garden through her eyes, the line between captor and protector starts to fracture.
Their growing attraction only makes the question more dangerous: what happens when the man sent to return you to your cage becomes willing to burn it down with you?
Release timeline & updates
"After Eden" is currently in beta reading, with revisions and final publication preparation to follow. I am aiming for a 2027 release, although an exact publication date has not yet been announced. I want to give the manuscript the time it needs rather than rush it toward an arbitrary deadline.
Release updates, ARC opportunities, and an official publication date will be shared as the book moves closer to release.
