Well...with all due respect, that's pretty much what everyone wants, who doesn't know HTML or CSS. Every author. Every publisher. They want some magic eBook-making software that makes a perfect ebook, that allows them to
NOT know what the hell they're doing.
I realize that in this day and age, every task more complicated than doing the dishes "has an app for that," but maybe if you really want to modify eBooks to suit your own tastes, you might want to learn how to make them. (And I'd point out, typing in the code and seeing what happens in Preview is a great way to start learning that....)
However, if you're going to insist on not understanding the code--even though, honestly, it's
truly not hard or complicated, mostly just a few hours to start learning--you can always take an ePUB or MOBI, put it in Calibre, export it to Word and then put the Word file into Atlantis.
Problem solved.
