A sassy woman who will do anything for her charity. A former Special Ops captain with nothing left to live for. Paired together against impossible odds, they will discover if love is strong enough to conquer the most difficult test of all.

Brylee Auburn, a spunky sweetheart from rural Texas, works to keep immigrant children safe from traffickers. When offered a chance to earn a million dollars for her charity, she enters a reality tv show planning to pretend she’s brave and use her sense of humor to get through the intimidating challenges. What she didn’t plan on was Cash, her handsome ex-military teammate, who not only gets her sense of humor, but surrounds her with his strength. Brylee is overwhelmed with Cash’s genuine care. He makes her believe she truly is brave and, unlike her former fiancé, Cash will be there for her, no matter what. Brylee didn’t come on the show looking for love, but wonders if she may be given a second chance at happiness after all.

Captain Cash Trapper, elite Special Ops officer, has put his heart and soul into his military service. But unexpected developments have forced him to retire from his unit early. He has no family, no hope, and no desire to form any emotional attachments. The only reason he has agreed to compete in a reality show is to raise a million dollars for his Healthy Life gyms which pair vets as mentors for at-risk youth. Cash’s adorable partner for the challenge, Brylee, takes him by surprise with her humorous accents and unique personality. He feels irresistibly drawn to this woman who makes him laugh, breaks through his walls, and feels so right in his arms. The more time he spends with Brylee working through the obstacles, the more he feels himself yearning for a future with her that can never be.

Can Brylee and Cash conquer the impossible challenge to help their charities? Will the truth about Cash’s future destroy Brylee or is their love able to overcome insurmountable odds?

An insane challenge for reality television. A million dollars on the line. A woman trying to earn the money for her charity. A retired special ops hero hired to protect her.

When far too many suspicious accidents happen everyone involved starts to wonder …

Is the host a charitable billionaire or a depraved lunatic?

Exciting

This was an exciting book to read. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and the plot. It was fun reading about a reality show rather than watching one. Thank you

Absolute trust.

I loved reading this story. I could not put it down. You are living the story with the main characters. .. the adrenalin flowing right to the end. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

Sweet, Insta-love & Suspenseful

Cami Checketts is a new to me author and I must say I enjoyed her suspenseful romance, Impossible Treasure. This is the first book in the A Chance for Charity series.The basis of the book is that there is a reality TV show to win money for charitable organizations. Cash, a retired green beret captain, has cancer and only months to live. He wants to earn money so he can set up gyms for veterans providing jobs and helping them as well as troubled youth. Cash is on the show to help and protect the contestant. Little did he know he’d meet the woman of his dreams, when he has such an undesirable diagnosis.Brylee, the contestant, is a feisty red head wanting to raise money for trafficked victims charity. There is an instant connection between the two MCs. Both have insecurities that they learn to overcome as they search for the hidden money.I enjoyed all the quotes from movies and descriptions of actors throughout the book. I could see and hear Brylee’s impersonations as I read them. Her way of using humor to deflect from her uncertainty and lighten the mood when needed, made the connection she and Cash had that much stronger.If you enjoy sweet insta-love, suspense and a happy for now ending, you’ll enjoy Impossible Treasure. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

Brylee and Cash

This is an interesting take on a reality show. Rather then winning something for yourself, you and a partner are working together for your charities. Cash and Brylee are both passionate about the charity work they do. Working together on a deserted island they have a week to ring the money! Easy with a former Green Beret and intelligent women from TX. Throw in a couple of uninvited bad guys and you get quite the adventure.

Loved everything EXCEPT the trigger and cliffhanger

I read this story mostly in one sitting. It made me laugh & cry. Cannot stand that the author so carelessly and thoughtlessly wrote a trigger into this otherwise wonderful story. Normally, I would delete and return a book at that point. This is the first time I have been so engrossed in the story that I finished the book. Then I got a cliffhanger. Great story, disappointed, though.
