Archaeologist Natalie Sullivan is determined to find a lost city in Ireland. But NFL star Mike O'Connor is standing in her way¿ Natalie Sullivan is on the verge of a breakthrough most archaeology grad students only dream of: discovering a lost city. Her research points to a farm in Ireland, but to excavate she needs permission from Michael O'Connor, an NFL running back.
