Sparks fly as Ross finds romance in the Gaeltacht...

A love affair born in rural Ireland! Two mismatched lovers, locked in a relationship that will change both of them... forever!

Ross O'Carroll-Kelly was brought up to believe that Gaelic games were invented for people too stupid to understand the laws of rugby. Little did he know that one day he would become a legend of Kerry football.

But then, his life has taken a lot of unexpected twists and turns.

His father is the Taoiseach of the country. His wife is an actual Government Minister. And his suddenly teenage daughter is heading for the Gaeltacht - and her very first rugby boyfriend. And then there's Marianne...

Of course, Ross was too busy becoming a Gaelic football star to realise that his family - like the entire country - was being pushed towards a cliff edge. And he was the only man capable of saving Ireland's democracy.

Which is just like, 'Fooooooock!'
