No Greater Treasure — Ellen Kelley

Kacey O'Reilly is an extraordinary woman by late nineteenth-century standards. A graduate from Harvard's women's affiliate, she works as an archaeologist...an independent woman who is fulfilled by her work and family--and has no room in her life for love.

Rafe Assante, a former archaeology student of Kacey's father, Colin, is a handsome young Frenchman equally devoted to work and family--yet irresistibly drawn to the beauty of Kacey's mind and spirit.

When Colin invites Rafe to join them on a dig in Colorado, Kacey is outraged by her father's presumption, While her father sees Rafe as a potential husband for Kacey, she sees him as an arrogant ladies' man--and vow to ignore him during their entire journey.

Before she knows it, Rafe has unearthed a burning desire that was buried deep within her heart--and for Kacey, it is the discovery of a lifetime...
