This was a great mystery with many twists and turns. It doesn’t great job of giving you just enough information to keep going and helps you slowly piece it all together.

Nothing is as it seems. This seemed like a simple read but it was not. A death, two marriages complicated relationships. Gabe and Pippa have just moved to their dream house on the cliff side. Gabe has found himself recusing people from the cliff side over and over until he runs into one he cannot save. When Pippa finds out he knew the one he couldn’t save she has doubts, unsure of who to trust this book was unputdownable.

This was twisty and suspenseful but not my favorite book by Sally. This wasnt such a thrilling thriller but more of a suspense / drama

This is a perfectly suitable thriller. The book is plot driven, and I had a good time the whole time I was reading it. None of the characters were particularly likable or easy to root for. The characters never felt fully fleshed out of well rounded. Some of the twists were surprising and others were more predictable. Overall, a solid middle-of-the-road thriller. A perfect vacation read where you want to be entertained but not think too much.

This was my second Sally Hepworth book and it was incredible. I am hooked on her writing, it is fast paced and books you immediately. She will always be a must read author for me!

Excellent mystery. I loved the premise and the surprises throughout. Great character building and plot development.

This was a boring disappointment of a read. The characters were bland and the different situations and how they were handled didn't vibe with me. I've enjoyed books with unlikable characters. With this book it just didn't flow. I stop and started reading this book a number of times. I've read her previous books and have enjoyed. In the end, the story left me cold.

Sally Hepworth never disappoints! While, at times, this book felt a bit formulaic of traditional thrillers, I still didn't expect the story to unfold the way that it did. The story was extremely immersive, and I could picture the house and cliffs - and felt the dread whenever we were near the edge. I really enjoyed this one - and would recommend it for any thriller lover!

The setting with the house on the cliff, and the resident who becomes the life saving negotiator (until he’s not) is such a different spin on a what-really-happened thriller. This one was really fun to read.

A gripping domestic thriller that explored the cracks beneath a seemingly perfect marriage. Pippa and Gabe live in an idyllic cliffside home with their two daughters, where Gabe has developed a reputation for talking down people contemplating suicide at the cliff's edge. But when one woman falls to her death, Pippa begins to question whether Gabe really tried to save her—or if something more sinister occurred. Hepworth did a fantastic job creating envy for Pippa and Gabe’s picture-perfect life, only to unravel it layer by layer. The suspense built beautifully, and the twists kept me hooked until the end. A compelling read with a dark, emotional edge!

As a busy working mom, I found The Soulmate by Sally Hepworth to be a gripping and emotionally charged read that expertly weaves together themes of love and tragedy. Set against the backdrop of a picturesque cottage perched on a cliff, the story follows Gabe and Pippa Gerard, whose dream home in a sleepy coastal town becomes the center of a haunting reality.

Gabe’s heroic efforts to save individuals contemplating suicide from the cliffs add an intense layer of suspense and complexity to the narrative. Hepworth’s writing is evocative and immersive, drawing me into the serene yet unsettling atmosphere of the Gerard's home. The character development is rich, making their struggles and dilemmas resonate deeply.

Final Thoughts:
The Soulmate is a captivating psychological thriller that balances the beauty of love with the harsh realities of life. It’s a must-read for moms looking for a thought-provoking story that explores the depths of human connection and the unseen battles many face. This book will keep you turning the pages and leave you contemplating long after the last chapter!

Love the mental illness representation! I loved all the twists in this! I wish the ending was a bit more dramatic. I think I was hoping Pippa was more involved! 4.75/5⭐️

I thoroughly enjoyed Soulmate! Jut imagine being so desperate to contemplate suicide by jumping off the edge of a cliff and the you meet a total stranger who takes the time to talk you literally off the edge of a cliff. Truly what a gift the main character in the book has and the insight into how the human mind works and how a person can be persuaded not to harm themselves. A very touching and emotional book from the beginning to the end....but can all people who visit the cliff be saved. That is the question! Many thanks to Netgalley for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for my review.

I will say that this was one of those books that you were like oh yeah... I've totally figured it out... only to be proven completely wrong in like the very next chapter. I cannot tell you the number of times I was reading and then something would happen and I'd be shocked because I really didn't see it coming. The author does a really good job with the misdirection and intentional misleading... and it really does showcase the ways the characters have told themselves such convincing lies. I honestly spent most of the book questioning my assumptions about things. Eventually I just stopped and was even more shocked by the big reveals that the author dropped into the storyline. And it was like they were no big deal... which I think is also indicative of Pippa and Gabe's relationship. They hide from so much.

The book was a little slow for me at points and it didn't feel like much was happening. Which, in all fairness, when the main event happens in the first chapter it doesn't really leave much anticipation building. Everything else is just a look at what led up to that event and what happened after. It was interesting to get this view of Pippa and Gabe's "perfect" marriage and to realize just how imperfect it was. It was interesting to have Amanda's point of view in the story, because it was like the polar opposite of Pippa's. I have to admit that this was one of those books that I didn't see the end coming. I however don't think it felt too much like a thriller. It honestly felt like a just a story about two vastly different marriages. Overall, it was an interesting read with lots of twists and turns.

Loved this book! It was right up my alley! My sister and my niece have read it and they loved it as well!

Hooked from the beginning! Told from two points of view, Amanda and Pippa's. Pippa and Gabe Gerard, with their two little daughters move to their dream home which is a cottage on a cliff. After making their home theirs they find out that it’s a popular place for committing suicide. Gabe has been talking people off the ledge and successfully up until now. But the next question is what happened to the victim, did she choose to jump to her death or was she pushed? Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for the advance ecopy.

It kept me entertained enough to finish it, but I just didn’t feel as if it was anything new or fresh…just another thriller. I wanted to get to the end as I was expecting some twist, but the payout just wasn’t there. This one didn’t hit the spot for me.

This was my first read from this author and I’m glad I read it. I love a good mystery that holds my attention and that was certainly this. Definitely an interesting read. I will have to look into the author’s other work.

This was a total page turner for me. These people were all completely deranged and I loved it! Twists and turns — some I didn’t see coming. Lots of creepy fun! Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a free copy!

Four solid stars. Don’t be fooled by the title of The Soulmate by Sally Hepworth. This book is not a romantic love story of finding the one and everyone lives happily ever after. This book is about partnership, loyalty, betrayal, mental illness, suspense, secrets, suicide, and murder. Chapters are short, alternating POV, and timeline of then and now. The Soulmate is packed with twist and turns that made this book a page turning fast paced read. Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for ARC read in exchange for my review.
