Ladies and gentlemen….
*insert TikTok music*
I went into this blind, and do not regret it.
I did have to get a piece of paper and map out who I believed was who.
You’re running from your past, and yet you’re stronger than you have ever been. You accompany your best friend to party at college simply because she asked you to go. You feel eyes on you the entire night; so you step into the woods outside of the property to see who could possibly be watching you. Is it you past finally catching up to you? All you years of training scream to run, and yet you can’t.
You find yourself in isolation in a cabin in the woods with a man you have never seen before. Yet, he seems to know you. He seems to have everything about you memorized. Along with his brothers, all six of them.
Yet, as a little time carries on (and the chloroform becomes less important) you realize that things are not always what they appear.
Welcome to the Blood on the Apple.
You meet Eira, the avenger who wants people to pay for their crimes; and then you meet the seven deadly sins. You have sloth, gluttony, envy, pride, lust, wrath, and greed. Yet, which brother will capture her heart?
Will it be the one who chased her through the woods, to chloroform her and drag her to the cabin? The brother who is broody and does not speak? The one who wants to add her to his ever growing collection of beautiful things? The one who wears a suit like a coat of armor? Or the one who sets her free?
Come along for this amazing journey where you discover that to truly heal you have to face down your past and step into the spotlight.

Noct, one body
6 brothers, Ash, Vex, Corbin, Riven, Lucian, Razer.
And one blue haired girl, Eira.
When they see her for the first time they already claimed her, little did they know about the monsters she is carrying with her. Just liked their own.
Rebekah I'm so impressed with this book. It's so freaking good. I have read all your books at this point and I can say this is your best!
The story flows so good, it's dark and intense (check trigger warnings girls) and I absolutely loved it.
The way you made all those brothers shine in their own way, everyone of them with their own story of how they became alive. But also how Eira can get trough them not by giving in but to fight them, push them to be better for her and can control them. But also how they fight each other's demons.

Thank you to the author for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
If you’re considering Blood on the Apple, it’s important to know this leans far more dark romance than fantasy retelling. It is a Snow White reimagining, but the retelling elements feel more thematic than immersive. If you’re coming in for a strong fantasy-forward adaptation, this may not fully meet that expectation.
If, however, you enjoy dark romance with psychological intensity, morally complex characters, and trauma-driven dynamics, this will likely land much better for you.
I’m not typically a dark romance reader, so this was outside my usual genre. That said, the psychological structure behind the story is one of its strongest elements. The male lead’s fragmented identities, echoing the seven deadly sins, are clearly intentional and consistently written. You can feel the effort behind making each internal voice distinct.
That said, with multiple identities and backstories unfolding, the pacing can feel fast. There are several layers happening at once, and some story threads could have benefited from more breathing room.
The relationship development is also quick. For readers who prefer a heavy slow burn, tension-filled buildup, or enemies-to-lovers friction, this may feel accelerated. The emotional alignment happens early, and I personally would have liked more resistance and build before that shift.
There are also significant triggers in this book, particularly involving abuse and trauma. Please check content warnings before reading.
This book will resonate most with readers who actively seek out dark romance and are comfortable with intense, obsessive dynamics.
For readers like me who are adjacent to the genre but not fully immersed in it, this may feel bold and ambitious but occasional rushed (please not this is considered from a heavy fantasy reader)
Overall, I can appreciate what the author set out to do, and found myself waiting to see what happened next!

Review of advance copy received from Author
This is a book for those who like to get straight to the point, into the weeds and up to their elbows. If you want "fairytale retold" vibes, I don't think this is it.
The MMC has 7 personalities, and that is a lot of POV to engage with. I like the representation of DID. I wonder if it needed more time... to really understand the nuance of each personality. I wanted more time with them. I wanted more time to understand the nature of DID through them.
The concept is interesting but you don't get alot of time to dig in. Things happen quickly. If you like to pick up a book and just tear through, or if you generally don't enjoy world building and character development, you might enjoy this. If you like stories that develop over time, this might not be your cup of tea. You will have questions.
I found it hard to get into as I kept having to stop and figure out if I had missed something. There aren't a lot of context clues and the concepts are presented very directly.
I feel like this book could be twice as long. There is so much to work with here. If Rebekah ever decided to dig back in and make it twice a long, I would indeed read it and that is why my rating is 3 stars and not 2. I like what was done, I just don't love everything about how it was done.

YES QUEEN 👑
You had me sold from the trigger warning PAGES 😉
"Why do the psycho ones have to be sexy as fuck?" RIGHT? 🤣.
Them main characters are unbelievable and I loved every single one of them.
Absolutely brilliant.
When I tell you I've read this book so quick I mean it... I literally started it lastnight.
It's so good. I literally couldn't put it down.
I will probably say this is Rebekahs best book yet and I've read everything she's written.

Oh... My... Gosh... I have no words on how amazing Blood on the Apple by Rebekah Lynn is. I started this book Friday morning, and I just finished it a couple hours ago. My mind is still reeling over everything that happened in this amazing gem. I absolutely LOVED and DEVOURED it, and everything about it was perfect! If you're into multiple POVs with a little bit of stalker vibes at the beginning that eventually leads to a slow burn romance, Blood on the Apple is the book for you!

Huge thank you to Rebekah for the opportunity at this ARC!!
I was hooked into the story immediately!! Super fast paced which I sometimes enjoy. Getting a glimpse into Noct’s life with D.I.D and Eira’s past, it makes sense why they’re pulled towards each other. The ending was sweet and very turn-point.
The only thing that has me dropping 1 star is it felt a little unrealisticlly rushed to me how quickly Eira’s feelings develop towards Noct. Would still recommend this 10/10!!

I LOVED this book!! I LOVED the characters! I LOVED how this book is unlike anything else i have ever read! It dark, each character has their own type of demon. There are all broken and when they find each other, they find things that they never had before, love. Safety, comfort and family.
But also their retribution on those that created their demons to begin with I can’t wait for another book

This book was absolutely amazing! From the very first chapter, it completely pulled me in, and once I started, it was nearly impossible to put down. Every page left me wondering what would happen next, and that constant sense of suspense made the whole reading experience so addictive. The characters were beautifully crafted and felt so real, and their backstories were not only detailed and engaging but also woven seamlessly into the present-day storyline without ever feeling confusing or overwhelming. It was one of those books that stays with you even after you’ve turned the last page—and honestly, I’m already wishing I could read it again for the first time.
Review of advance copy received from Author
Wooooo what a RIDE. The story dives right in with the first pages, showing you just how much of a baddie that Eira is going to be. I mean, skin tight dress and blades? What more could a girl need? Absolutely no fear, and she immediately introduces the MMC(s?) in all their glory. I absolutely loved that each chapter told you the name of the viewpoint you were reading, but with the men, it also associated with one of the seven deadly sins. It made it all the more interesting identifying who was Wrath, who was Glutton, and so forth. It truly set up their personalities and expectations of each character as the story progressed, but Rave was by FAR my favorite. Something about those silent, broody types will get me every time. The writing was phenomenal, and the attention to detail made it so easy for readers like me (I visualize as I read) to play the story out in my head. Honestly though, I have read so much pitch black and splatterpunk without a single concern, buuut that catheter scene? Yeah, that got a flinch out of me. I never flinch, so I was beyond excited to get a book that got a physical reaction! The remaining dark scenes were well detailed too, showing the extent of how far each member of the story is willing to. There was just the right amount of smut! No fade to black scenes, which I appreciated, but the book also wasn't overwhelmingly dirty to the point that it took away from the story. Instead, each scene was sprinkled in just the right place that provided character growth while still giving us that spice we so desire! Now, I have zero triggers while reading, but I can say that this book is not for the faint of heart. The author does well in listing the triggers, but she also takes it a step farther and specifically clarifies before certain scenes what is about to play out. If those specific triggers (more than just torture and murder) will affect you, these parts CAN be skipped. While they provide backstory and logic for each character, scenes involving childhood do not directly have to be read and can instead be glossed over while still getting the gist. Overall, this was incredibly well written and honestly I would read a second book without question about Eira and her... Men? This was a fun ride from start to finish, and it was just a unique take on the "crazy" males that are so often depicted.

ARC REVIEW:
I think I have officially decided that I am a silent brooding touch her and die girly through and through. Because you put a man like Raze in my line of sight and I’m pretty sure I can have a complete O and still be left wanting more without a single word.
This book was a roller coaster of a ride. It’s inspiration being Snow White and the 7 dwarves but turn the 7 dwarves into 7 personalities in one man that has DIDs, each personality representing 7 deadly sins, and you have this book. I loved the little tie ins of the OG Snow White, subtle but good.
I absolutely LOVE that the author put warnings before really dark sections of the book. Giving readers an important warning because mental health is so important and this author very clearly takes that seriously.
There was one section in the book where, you know that feeling when you want to vomit, your mouth produces way more saliva, becomes almost salty in a way, the gag is in the bottom of your gut wanting to work its way out. But you know if you let it happen you will puke so you just smack your lips a little until the feeling finishes. Ya that’s what got me in the book. One chapter was so visually well written I literally almost puked.
My ONLY complaint and honestly this is just a me thing, is that each personality had these super hot names for her that made me swoon, but she would just call them hot stuff. Like, bro, you’re making my clit pulse but then you call him hot stuff.
Spice level is great
Book read is great!
Highly recommend!

ARC review
I went into this book pretty much blind, and had no idea what to expect. I know a lot about DID as someone close to me has it, and Rebekah Lynn did a phenomenal job with it.
Eira, our FMC, is the right amount of sass, anger, evil, and never letting things break her. I have enjoyed watching her interact with each of the guys and watching her fall for them individually, as well as a whole.
Raze.....wrath and unhinged perfectly! I absolutely adore the torturous and protective side of him.
Lucian.... prideful,meticulous and over calculated. To serious for me, but still love him
Riven....oh that jealousy part is perfect! So possessive too
Ash....oh the lust side is real....I lust for him so much! I love his nickname for her 🤣 snow bunny
Corwin....the glutton side is there to an absolute T!! I loved the food references mixed with his obsession for Eira
Vex.... definitely can see the greed side for him.
Noct....oh sweet Noct, where it all began. Our Sloth. My heart absolutely broke non-stop for him. Still is honestly!
The ONLY thing I would've like to see, is more of each of these guys stories. I came together very well, and you get to see how each one came about and what Noct went thru. A novella would for each man would be PERFECT!!
Vex....the greed

Blood on the Apple by. Rebekah Lynn
*Dark and twisted romance
*Raw, uncut and full of personalities
*full of revenge, and retribution
*heavy on the trigger warnings ⚠️
*duel trauma healing
*obsessive MMC(s)
Seven deadly sins all wrapped up into one handsomely built package. Forged from the traumas of his past. Vex, Noct, Lucian, Corwin, Riven, Raze and Ash have finally met the women they are willing to protect more than themselves.
Eira is a strong FMC, a girl who can hold her own, with daggers in her bossum at the ready. She is done running and ready to get revenge on the one who abused her for years and stole her childhood.
This story was such a dark and twisted ride from the first chapter. Absolutely loved the concept of multiple personalities. Our MMC has a fast paced obsession, while our FMC slowly warms up to him. Once they all finally click together its like a perfect storm. Everyone has thier own moment in the spotlight. This was a very unique story and I really enjoyed the overall adventure with the well deserved vengeance.

I was HOOKED from page 1! This book is incredible! I wish I could erase it from my brain and read it for the first time again! I cannot recommend it enough! And it’s available 13/3 ‼️make sure to check your TW’s!
I love the plot, I love the use of the 7 deadly sins, I love the representation of DID and it was done so well, and so interestingly, I love the characters and I love their chemistry.
Eira, what a Queen (by name & character) she was brilliant! The awful things she went through, but she didn’t let them ruin her, she became a warrior, a nightmare, and I love that for her! And boy, did the nightmare get her revenge!
Amara, what a best friend to have! She is ride or die and she truly cared about Eira and what was best for her, she believed her when no one else did.
Noct (the host) and his personalities, I loved them all for different reasons, and the different types of want and need they had for Eira, I also loved how utterly protective they were of Noct and how vulnerable he was, and he didn’t hide it from Eira.
What an ending to the story, it was perfect! It was torture, it was revenge and it was for love. And now I’m gutted it’s over 💔

Blood on the Apple by Rebekah Lynn
First, thank you Rebekah for the ARC.
I had no idea I needed a dark fantasy romance (more dark romance than fantasy, just to clarify) retelling of Snow White until I went in blind and read Blood on the Apple.
The book warns readers about some intense scenes. I recommend it to those familiar with dark romance but strongly advise reading the content and trigger warnings, especially if you’re new to the genre. If you’re up for it and don’t want to, feel free to go in blind – it’s your choice.
I genuinely enjoyed this book. I couldn’t relate to the MCs and FMC, but I definitely empathised with their stories, especially the MCs and how the seven different personalities came to be. I love how they were written and the accuracy of the portrayal of the disorder (the meaning, not the people living with DID). I shed tears during each moment of their story. I don’t cry easily when it comes to books, so this is a testament to the emotional impact of the story.
I understand that many people might assume this is a fairy tale book, but it’s far from it.

Review of advance copy received from Author
I received this book as an ARC.
Top Notes:
- Very very dark. Like vanta black dark.
- well written and researched.
- PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CHECK YOUR TRIGGERS
This dark retelling of Snow White is a story of two souls coming together for revenge, possession, healing, and resolving trauma with a delicious sprinkle of unhinged romance.
There is a lot of chemistry between Eira and Noct (and his system). I love that each member of the system has a unique set of tells. I love that Rebekah poured herself into writing Noct to be representative and not just for show. Her dedication to representing mental illness properly warms my heart.
I also love how Eira does her best to understand without assuming. She asks if she can ask questions, and she tries to understand him on a deeper level. In a lot of ways, Noct is trying to understand Eira, too.
When we look at spice, I'd call it a level 3.5. It's there, but it's fairly organic and adds to the story.

This was my first experience reading a book featuring DID, and I feel as though Rebekah really gave the disorder a much deeper understanding. This was very thought out and methodically written to showcase this disorder in multiple lights!
Eira is a girl who went through so much that should've broken her. That being said, She rose from the ashes and saw that it was ok to open her heart to someone (or someones). She is sassy and defiant and doesn't hold anything back!
Noct, and his “alter brothers,” each bring a different light to the table! Each one perfectly crafted from ruins and sculpted into guardians! What they didn't expect was to add a phenox in the mix of thier protection!
Raze broke me then healed me and will forever hold my heart!
⚠️ This book is heavy on triggers, so please take a moment to review the content warnings before diving in. Your mental health matters always.

I needed to sleep on this before I could write a review😆
So this starts FAST. I like fast, but it starts so fast that I had to double check that I was appropriately buckled up. It took me about 30-40% to get settled, but maaaaannn once I hit that groove I couldn’t put it down!
There are parts where it is challenging to figure out who is talking - FMC or one of the seven MMCs🥴 But it was never in dialogue that was important enough to detract from the story!
Also, the ending was wilddddd - it wasn’t necessarily a cliff hanger… but also it left a lot of loose ends to look forward to in a follow up!
So this starts FAST. I like fast, but it starts so fast that I had to double check that I was appropriately buckled up. It took me about 30-40% to get settled, but maaaaannn once I hit that groove I couldn’t put it down!

Whew!! Noct, Ash, Vex, Corwin, Lucian, Raze, and Riven. Idk which one I like more. I love Eira and how she is able to distinguish all of them. Eira gave me what I needed !! I needed a strong FMC!! I love how Eira was not a damsel in distress. She was able to hold her own! She fell in love with each brother individually and Noct as a whole because each brother is a part of Noct! Learning the origin of each brother was heart wrenching and well written. I love everything about this book and as a clinician the seamless integration of each brother and Noct coming forward as the host/dominant brother was needed! I need more of Noct and Eira!! (And his brothers of course)

loved this book so much! It sucks one in from page one and leaves you wanting more. I want all my friends to drop everything and read it now!
I like the story line of MMC having DID and the way the stoey tells about the disorder without being to clinical or over your head.
I am not a big romance reader, but there was just enough spice and flavor in the book for me.
I had the best time doing this ARC and hope to work with Rebekah Lynn again in the future.

This book is so amazing!!! I love that it's a very dark retelling of Snow White. reading about a MMC that has multiple personalities and slowly learning his story made me feel so bad for what Noct went through as a child. I can't even pick which altar was my favorite I love them all. They all have different personalities and skills of their own. Rebekah did an amazing job of writing this. I would definitely recommend this to my friends who enjoy reading this type of book.

I devoured this book like I was starving. Each persona was absolutely perfect and I just couldn't get enough. The ending was everything that I could have hoped for and I would love to see these characters again in the future. While there is dark subject matter and some may need to check the trigger warnings first, I absolutely recommend this to anyone that feels like giving it a chance.

I hope you guys have your restraints locked in because you are in for a ride! There were times I was confused, happy, mad and sad and sometimes, all at the same time. This was the first book I’ve read involving DID so I didn’t know what to expect, but I absolutely loved it. As the book came to an end, I really didn’t want it to 😂

This was a great read. Please check trigger warnings before diving into this book. There are dark topics discussed and depicted that could cause disturbance to some readers.
I’ve never read something like this before but I loved the depiction of DID and the Snow White retelling and the 7 brothers. I can’t wait to see what else is in store from these characters!

Seven personalities represent the seven sins; all of them are obsessed with one blue haired beauty. No one is innocent. Once he saw her, they knew she was theirs and they wont give her up for anything. Could each be the piece of the puzzle that the other is missing?

Fortunate enough to be an ARC reader for this. Loved the book and premise - hope to see more about the mmc. Thoughtful representation of DID, lives up to its genre -dark romance, quick, easy read for me. Loved it!

I really enjoyed this book! Eira is a bad @$$ and her men are incredible. I absolutely would recommend this book to anyone who loves dark romance with mental health aspects.
