At the age of eighteen, Hattie Kavanaugh began her career at Kavanaugh & Son Restorations, where she worked tirelessly to restore homes. Despite her young age, she quickly rose through the ranks and married the boss's son at twenty. Tragically, Hattie became a widow at twenty-five. Despite the hardships she had faced, Hattie remained passionate about her work. However, her work was the only passion in her life.

Her father-in-law, who had witnessed her struggles, gave her a piece of advice that she would later come to regret: "Never love something that can't love you back." Hattie, however, ignored this advice and fell head over heels for a money pit of a house. She was determined to make it work, despite the countless disasters that occurred along the way.
