Austen Gillet thought that blowing up the portal was the worst thing that could happen to her. She was wrong. Now she’s trying to pick up the pieces of her old life while Ian adjusts to being trapped in the modern world, unable to go back to his home in ancient Greece. Any free time they have is spent trying to find the missing portal and capture any mysterious creatures that appear. But when a monster attacks another innocent person, Austen decides that maybe the dangers they’re facing are too much for her and Ian to handle alone. Maybe it’s time to ask for help. Soon the fragile peace Austen has tried so hard to cultivate crashes down around her and she realizes that sometimes the most treacherous things in the forest walk on two legs, not four.
