Dream a Little Dream by Susan Elizabeth Phillips

In this romance by a well-known romance writer, there are a bunch of people who are in trouble.  By the end of the novel, they're not in trouble anymore.

Rachel's husband left her when he faced legal trouble; overnight, her world collapsed and she was left with nothing.  Once looked up to in her community, she's now despised.  Her sudden change in fortune has changed her personality; as her finances become more desperate, so does she.

When her car breaks down outside a tumble-down drive-in movie on the edge of town, she meets the irksome owner who insults her little boy.  Bowed but unbeaten, she asks the guy for a job, and to sweeten the deal, makes an outrageous offer.

Despite this unpromising beginning, she gets the job and finds that helping the ornery owner fix up his tumbledown drive-in movie parking lot surprisingly fulfilling.
