Welcome to Garden Valley

What would you do if your husband bought a broken-down house in another town without asking? For 'Ms. Fix It,' Joanie Nelson, this would have been a dream come true ten years ago, before the doubt of her carpentry skills settled in.

Stuck in a whirlwind of chaos, Joanie's life is a repeat of lonely days wrapped in a blanket of sorrow. Even with two rambunctious sons who have shunned her from their lives and a husband she barely sees, Joanie likes to fool herself into believing she has everything under control.

The shredded piece of string that has held her life together breaks when Joanie's husband is offered a job out of state in Garden Valley. While clinging to the schedule that has done nothing to tame her boys, Joanie must come face-to-face with the six-letter word she has long avoided: 'change.' Joanie loses the tug-of-war and is dragged into the unfamiliar territory of Garden Valley to start a new life. Can Joanie meet her own high expectations for this renovation project? Will their family find acceptance in the close-knit community of Garden Valley? Or will it be the same lonely life of being shunned by her kids and not seeing her husband?
