Ten years ago treasure hunter Jack Storm left Lorelei before the wedding in order to chase an elusive pot of gold. But Jack has never forgotten Lorelei or forgiven himself for breaking her heart. Now, Jack is determined to make Lorelei fall in love with him all over again and help him find the Lost Dutchman's Mine.
