From the Ashes<br />

by Deborah Challinor<br />

A captivating story of family and friendship through one decade<br />

of incredible change. In 1950s Auckland things are changing<br />

- and fast. Women are joining the workforce in numbers,<br />

whitegoods are readily available and the age of rock’n’ roll has<br />

arrived.<br />

Allie Manaia works the Elizabeth Arden counter at Smith and<br />

Caughey’s. It’s been two years since the Dunbar and Jones fire,<br />

where some of her friends perished, but she still has nightmares.<br />

Kathleen Lawson - rich, lonely and bored - is one of Allie’s customers.<br />

Kathleen takes a shine to Allie, but when Kathleen discovers Allie’s husband is Maori, her<br />

attitude changes. Is she trying to make friends or poison the relationship between Sonny<br />

and Allie?<br />

Meanwhile, Sonny’s beautiful younger sister, Polly, is embracing the more relaxed moral<br />

standards of the era, living a vibrant but wayward life as a waitress-model-goodtime girl<br />

while leaving her young daughter to be raised by her mother.<br />

Told in Deborah Challinor’s trademark style - equal parts heart and humour - From the<br />

Ashes follows the fortunes of the women of three families through one decade of incredible<br />

change.<br />

Lost without you<br />

by Rachael Johns<br />

Four women, one dress, and the secret that binds them all... On a special night that is<br />

supposed to be a celebration of new beginnings, Paige MacRitchie’s joy quickly falls away<br />

when her mother collapses during the speeches at her book launch. In the aftermath, and<br />

terrified of losing her, Paige decides she wants to make the ultimate tribute to her parents’<br />

perfect marriage: she will wear her mother’s wedding dress for her own big day. There’s<br />

just one problem - her mum, Rebecca, no longer has the dress.<br />

As Paige tries to track down the elusive gown, she discovers that Rebecca has a longhidden<br />

secret that, if revealed, could blow her whole family apart. Her new friend Josie is at<br />

a crossroads too. She met her husband Nik when she was singing in an eighties-themed<br />

bar, but now she’s lonely, yearning for a family and wondering if Nik understands her at<br />

all. And then there’s nurse Clara. When she married Rob Jones, an up-and-coming rock<br />

star, she thought she was in it forever. But now Clara needs to make a new life for herself<br />

and Rob can’t seem to understand that it’s over.<br />

When the fates of these four women intertwine in an unexpected and powerful way, none<br />

of their lives will ever be the same again. A fresh and poignant novel of family, journeys,<br />

past decisions ... and dresses ... from the ABIA award-winning, bestselling author Rachael<br />

Johns.<br />
