What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

Read between 2008 and 2010. English book with a cover that had a girl standing in a garden but you could only see up her bare legs to mid thigh. A snake was wrapped around her thigh.

The story is from Eve's perspective with the Snake as her guardian appointed by God. The Snake is to teach Eve how to be a human while God teaches Adam in a separate area of the Garden. Start's when they are both children. After they become adults God attempts to get Adam and Eve together but she prefers the company of the snake and the Snake does not agree with how God treats both her and Adam. God attempts to make Eve lay beneath Adam to 'copulate' but she has no interest and the snake takes her away when Adam hurts her. The snake then turns into a man (not sure if I remember right) and shows her how relations between and man and a woman should be.

The Garden by Elsie V. Aidinoff?

This is it! Thank you so much I've been searching for years!
