Archaeology is a glamorous career, right?

Elise Marquette likes dead people but digging up the dead doesn't pay. Consulting Archaeology does. Her desperate need for money has biological anthropologist Elise stuck in a mundane job working for greedy, callous oil companies. It's a soul-sucking existence and she can't see a way out.

As if that wasn't enough, Elise's family is a disaster, and she's given up on love and romance. Just when she'd resigned herself to torturous family dinners, cheap comfort food, safety forms and steel-toed boots, she meets an archaeologist during a brief respite to Ireland. The attractive Gavin Cleary has Elise re-evaluating what happiness is and what it's truly worth.

Get ready to join Elise Marquette on a wild ride full of adventure, heart, and a healthy dose of humour. Eat your heart out, Indiana Jones—Elise is the new queen of archaeology!

This book was originally published as Memoirs of a Reluctant Archaeologist as an ebook in 2011 and in print in 2017. The story remains the same, with minor updates and a new title to better reflect the journey at its core.
