Marie-Angélique and Marie-Eugénie are two sisters raised in a very strict household, who marry very different men: the former a cutthroat banker, the latter a man who has given his wife everything she needs save money, but who lacks any adventure in his spirit. In short, he’s boring. This leads Marie-Eugénie to make some bad decisions, and it will take quick thinking and bold action if she is to be saved from certain disaster. Although one of Balzac’s shorter novels, A Daughter of Eve is full of the richly-drawn characters that are his hallmark, and demonstrates less of the cynicism that is common in his Human Comedy. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Ten of the Bible’s best-known femmes fatales parade across the pages of this popular and unforgettable study with situations that sound oh-so-familiar. Women everywhere marvel at those “good girls” in Scripture–Sarah, Mary, Esther–but on most days, that’s not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if they’re honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch of glimpse of Jezebel’s take-charge pride or Eve’s disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, today’s modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires. So what’s a good girl to do? Learn from their lives, says beloved Bible study teacher and speaker Liz Curtis Higgs, and choose a better path. Whether they were “Bad to the Bone,” “Bad for a Season, but Not Forever” or only “Bad for a Moment,” these infamous sisters show women how not to handle the challenges of life. With her trademark humor and encouragement, Higgs combines a contemporary retelling of the stories of these “other women” in Scripture with a solid, verse-by-verse study to teach us how to avoid their tragic mistakes and joyfully embrace grace. Let these Bad Girls show you why studying the Bible has never been more fun! Includes Discussion Questions and Study Guide
