Worth a Chance (Second Chance Harbor, #5)
Lea Coll
From childhood nemeses to business rivals, can competition lead to attraction for this unlikely pair? From lemonade stand wars as kids to competing coffee shops as adults, Ben always finds ways to get under my skin. But, no matter how he pushes my buttons, I refuse to let him ruin my business. Of course, there is the matter of his adorable seven-year-old daughter he’s now struggling to raise on his own. I want to keep him in the familiar enemy-zone, but his little girl is melting my heart. Thanks to her, I’m beginning to think there’s more to the single dad than meets the eye. Ben has many layers, and I find myself wanting to unravel them. Is it possible he has a kind heart under that cocky façade? But what if it’s all a trick? Bankrupting my coffee shop, while shattering my heart, would be the ultimate win for him. How can I trust that the attraction between us is real, and not another high-stakes competition?

This is the 5th book in this series, however, it can be read as a standalone. There's not a ton of history that you need to learn about other characters, they are only mentioned.
This book is the story of Brooke and Ben, who had completing lemonade stands when they were children. They have fought each other since then. When Ben moves back to the town where they grew up, he looks to open a coffee shop, which is what Brooke now owns and is running for herself. They become competitors, while also learning that they really like each other as adults. For several reasons, Brooke doesn't do or trust relationships, even as she and Ben grow closer. She doesn't see herself the way he does. Can Brooke learn to take the leap to trust and can Ben be that person?
