Flowers of Eve by Lakendrick L. Northern

 Eve Shafford gave her all mentally and physically to achieve goals and love within a relationship that was shattered by the tragic loss of her mate, Desmond. His gruesome murder was witnessed by her and their daughter, Shyla, deeming her chances to ever love again null and void. In such a small and treacherous world, an erratic and cold-hearted Dewanna, left Kendrick Ross no other choice but to drop love like a bad habit, when their past garnered pangs in a custody battle for his son, Jaylin, leaving no stone unturned. In contrast to placing a stigma on love, Kendrick finds a sense of joy when he encounters Eve who changed his life in a way that would never return to normal.

 However, with Dewanna up to her foul tricks, will Kendrick and Eve’s love stand up to the test that takes them on a ride of their lives toward true love? After reading Flowers of Eve, you will be left with the question of, will heartaches prevail or will true love overshadow the deception of love's pain. Bound in sacred union, they believe that love deserves a second try, but they also realize that their friends have to deal with their own relationship problems. Ultimately, times of confiding lead to twists and turns that tangle a slew of emotions, mixing happiness, pleasure, and tragedy that open old wounds. With love, lust, revenge, and emotional turmoil, this brings us to the notion of, whether true love ever prevail.

In the beginning was the word, so let us start with the word. James 4:7 reminds us that there is a blessing in submission. Submission to God requires us to relinquish our perceived control and trust God to be God. Most of us view submission as difficult and undesirable. Alternative Reign: A Lesson in Submission provides insight to shift our perspective on submission and allows us to rest in the comfort of submitting to an omnipotent God.
