Our late-night campaign work sessions turn into heart-to-heart conversations, and I start to see a future with him that I never imagined. Meanwhile, my time-traveling friends, Bella and Patrick, are uncovering secrets that drag them back to medieval Ireland. We're all racing against time, trying to bring these villains down once and for all. Can we uncover the truth behind the time travel portal and stop a madman's crazy plans? I guess we're about to find out... Montrose Portal is book 2 in a historical fantasy time travel novel series by bestselling Urban Fantasy Academy author Barbara Hartzler.
