Another wild ride from Sally Hepworth, picked it up and couldn't put it down until I finished it. Full of secrets and who done it's. Definitely recommend.

The Soulmate is a must read! So many twists and turns until the very end!!

I was drawn in from the first few pages. There was love, mystery, thriller, heart break and many more feelings!

This book makes me want to visit the Ocean but maybe not The Drop.

There’s a cottage on a cliff. Gabe and Pippa’s dream home in a sleepy coastal town. But their perfect house hides something sinister. The tall cliffs have become a popular spot for people to end their lives. Night after night Gabe comes to their rescue, literally talking them off the ledge. Until he doesn’t.

When Pippa discovers Gabe knew the victim, the questions spiral...Did the victim jump? Was she pushed?

And would Gabe, the love of Pippa’s life, her soulmate...lie? As the perfect facade of their marriage begins to crack, the deepest and darkest secrets begin to unravel.


This was my first Sally Hepworth novel. It was so good and now I'm ready to dive into more of her books. If you're looking for a good read this is it!

Fast-paced domestic thriller set on the southern coast of Australia. The storyline is dual-POV as well as multiple timeline (now, then, after), but it all dovetails nicely in the end.

I struggle with female protagonists who make (seemingly) naïve decisions in the name of love, but in this case, I was able to understand where Pippa was coming from, especially as more was revealed. The ending wrapped things up quite nicely and left me feeling hopeful for Pippa and her family.

Thank you #NetGalley for the ARC of this new book by Sally Hepworth.

Like The Good Sister also by SH, I simply could not engage with these characters. I found them to be wooden like stand-ins. After about 75 pages I decided I wasn’t going to struggle with this book in the same way I did with The Good Sister. While I appreciate the opportunity, it seems that Sally and I are not meant to share a reading experience.

Another winner by Sally Hepworth! What does it mean to be someone's soulmate? Accepting them without question? A mesmerizing, character-driven mystery with a heartbreaking coda.

This was a delicious read, with a build up in plot like a slow burn. Hepworth has done it yet again. I enjoyed the switch of perspective a from past to present between the characters that was able to so thoroughly get into the characters’ minds without ever truly hearing from them firsthand. Great read! Thanks to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley for the ARC.

You know immediately upon starting it, what you’re in for - nonetheless, it is riveting. But, this not only turns out to be a page turner, but one full of twists and turns that are for the most part quite plausible. I think the topic of mental health was dealt with overall quite well, Hepworth for the most part getting the charismatic pull of a person who is bipolar right on, with the difficulties of living with the repercussions of it and other types of mental illness.
It is a relief to read about people who can be afflicted with these problems, rather than just a “maniacal killer”theme. Though not a perfect rendition of conditions that can occur, Hepworth does make a valiant effort to make her characters and their problems relatable . I enjoyed the read and was satisfied by the ending, though actually wondered if it was a correct view of reality. There have been be some loose ends…. Plus who likes relatable characters dying?

Still, an enjoyable read, and thanks to NetGalley and St.Martins Press for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book became very absorbing. I found it to be clever. I enjoyed the characters and, as I went into this blind, I wasn't expecting this storyline but I enjoyed it. It was an easy read with lots of surprising twists!

Thank you NetGalley for this

This book was pretty good. I was definitely entertained and on the edge of my seat. Really well written, as always. 4 wonderful stars, and thank you for my copy in exchange for an honest review

👀Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC of Soulmate. After hearing many good things about this book on a Facebook group and receiving the ARC, I gave it a read. It was suspenseful and I have enjoyed other Sally Hepworth books as well.

This book was entertaining in the sense that you never knew what was going to happen next. There are definitely some wtf moments and diving through the complexities of marriage with Pippa and Gabe as the model is a wild ride!

It’s a lot to unpack, and a lot of different things going on and at times it became a bit much. Also, the style kind of threw me off in the beginning but other than that, it checks all the boxes for a good suspense and book to settle in with for a twisted journey.

Sally Hepworth has yet to let me down! Her newest book, The Soulmate, kept me guessing until the very end!

How well do you really know your spouse? Do you know their secrets? What makes them tick? How to push their buttons? Gabe and Pippa are the dream couple. The golden boy with the smart girl. Two perfect kids. The cottage on the cliff.

When Gabe's reputation as the local hero comes to a slamming halt one evening, the perfect life they thought they had begins to unravel. Who holds the cards? Whose secrets are worse? Will the family survive?

A strong marriage, an incredibly supportive family, and secrets from all sides made this page-turner one of my favorites this year.

Another amazing book by Sally Hepworth. This novel follows the lives of husband and wife Gabe and Pippa and what a rollercoaster it is!! So many secrets revealed and twists throughout the book. A quick, super juicy read.

✨ARC Review✨

“It’s not normal, the way you love your husband.”

The ledge near Gabe and Pippa’s home is a constant place for suicide. “Millionaires Walk” is known for its views, but it’s also known for the walking path and sheer drop leading to jagged rocks and beach. Phoning to the police that there is “someone on the cliff” is a regular occurrence. Gabe has talked seven people to date off the ledge until Ananda is there. Amanda is the one he couldn’t talk off the ledge, but is her death what it seems?

“We will never know the number of lives we have saved.”

The Soulmate is a binge worthy page turner! It is told from multiple POV, along with shifting timelines, and it’s short chapters make for a quick read! If you enjoy Dateline or the show Accident, Suicide, or Murder, then this book is a must read. There are multiple twists, and although it is pretty clear what happened to Amanda when she died, it’s the journey on how she arrived there that is telling. Even though this book surrounds death, it also discusses marriage, soulmates, and what two people bring to a marriage. That sometimes a marriage is draining, and isn’t what it seems.

A special thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for this eARC! The Soulmate is out April 4th!

I really was sucked in to this story at the beginning. Gabe and Pippa live near “The Spot” a well known cliff where individuals come to choose to end their life. Gabe has made a habit of talking them out of doing so.

Though, I did have to wonder why they were so okay with raising two young daughters so close to a known suicide spot where you could see people contemplating jumping from the window of their home, I still found myself drawn in to the story of Gabe talking every person out of it until the woman at the beginning of this story.

It turns out the woman who jumped isn’t a stranger and is connected to both Gabe and Pippa in unique ways. I found I became less interested as the story went on, as the twists weren’t the punch to the gut shock I’ve come to expect with thrillers.


Mental health and particularly Gabe’s ADHD is made a huge part of the narrative alluding to it influencing his increasingly erratic behavior (that I didn’t super love). As someone with ADHD who was diagnosed during adulthood it was immediately obvious this diagnosis was off/not the root of Gabe’s problems. Everything was very exacerbated and extreme for just ADHD. I did suspect something else and while things are revealed I am very happy for the verbiage that did not allow Gabe to blame his actions on his mental illnesses and lack of accountability and taking care of them properly. As an adult with a few different mental diagnoses, they are an explanation not an excuse but I’m also pleased to see neither was villainized as mental illnesses often are in fiction, especially thrillers.

Overall, I’m giving this one 3.5 stars.

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Thank you so much to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for the E-ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Sally is freaking the queen of twisty, jaw-dropping, domestic thrillers that keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time. I loved this book so much. I literally couldn’t stop reading once I started and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since I finished.

Sally Hepworth is fast becoming a go-to author for me. She really knows how to keep the twists coming. It seems like everyone has something to hide in this thriller that takes place in a house at the edge of a cliff. Most people wouldn't choose to buy a house where people come to end their lives, but Pippa and Gabe thought it was their dream house. Until one day when a woman goes off the cliff while her husband is talking to her. Did he push her? Why did he even go out? Just when you think you have things figured out something new happens. Loved this story and the suspense will keep you guessing!

This is my 5th Sally Hepworth book and I really enjoyed it! I sped through this in two days, finding it hard to put it down. There seemed to be a few too many twists - but overall it was a fun and well-written thriller. I'll definitely read anything she writes!!
*Thank you to the publisher for providing my review copy.

Love the twist and turns in this fast paced thriller. Set by the edge of the sea and includes a main character who is a ghost, what's not to love?
