The world-building is rich and immersive, the Cursed Fae are genuinely terrifying, and the secrets buried in Nevena’s bloodline had me turning pages like my life depended on it. The tension, the betrayals, the romance—it all works. And when that slow burn starts to ignite… then BOOM. Prepare to feel EVERYTHING.

If you love high-stakes romantasy, an FMC who fights tooth and nail for her freedom, and an enemies-to-lovers romance that BURNS, The Midnight Gate is a must-read. S.K. Stapar, you have my attention!
