This was a pretty middle of the road domestic thriller. The main couple isn't very relatable or likeable, and the main character makes some interesting choices that seem farfetched. Quick read.

Thank you St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the e-ARC of the book.

Pippa and Gabe Gerard are on their new chapter living in a beautiful house with their two daughters. The only draw back is that in the back of their house is a cliff that is a known spot for people to end their lives. As soon as family found that out Gabe decided to stop it and change people's minds and give their lives another chance. He was successful until one day when woman jumped in front of him. Things get complicated for Pippa as she understands that her family has connections to dead woman.

This story is told from two perspectives Pippa and Amanda (the dead woman) as they share things that are currently happening and the past that led them to this situation. The more I read the more I questioned a lot of things as every chapter brought more doubt and questions. I enjoyed how characters were sharing their stories and thought on soulmates and love. In my opinion the ending made a lot of sense and explained it all.

I love Sally Hepworth books and this one was no different. I flew through this one, couldn't put it down.

Chalk full of an engaging storyline, intriguing characters, twists and turns and a great ending. Fans of Hepworth need to run, not walk to pick this one up.

Another fantastic story from Sally Hepworth. The dual timeline was very effective and I did not quite expect the twist at the end. Hepworth is a master at this kind of drama/thriller and I devoured this book in one afternoon.

This was my first Sally Hepworth book and I was completely engrossed. From the first chapter I was hooked, such an easy read. Gabe and Sally pull you in.
I audibly gasped several times as I definitely didn’t see the twists coming. They just reeled me in and just when I thought I had it figured out. Nope another twist.
Excuse me while I go discover my next read by this author.

Excellent fast paced thriller. Interesting husband wife dynamic that propels this book. Well written. Thanks for ARC

Would you buy a house next to a cliff that is a known suicide spot? And what happens when your husband knows someone who jumped? I loved this twisty thriller that kept me guessing to the end.

This is a scary domestic thriller, for sure! The author does not shy away from tackling difficult issues, such as mental health, and writes beautifully about the trials and tribulations of the modern marriage.

Pippa and Gabe purchase a home on a cliff near Melbourne. They move in with their two young daughters and hope to live a wonderful life, but the cliff is known as "The Drop", a place where people come to jump and take their own lives. Gabe has managed to save seven people and is known as an angel. When he and Pippa see a woman out there, Gabe goes out to talk her out of jumping, but instead, it looks like he pushes her. It turns out that he knows her, she is the wife of his boss. The police start an investigation as her husband is sure she was not suicidal. Suddenly secrets are revealed and Gabe begins to look more and more guilty.

The Soulmate was a book I was highly anticipating this summer. It is a story that deals with mental health and how it affects those around them. It is a mystery with several twists giving it a thriller feel. My problem with this book is that I really didn't connect with the characters. Although I didn't dislike them, there just seemed to be something missing. The story is told from the POV of Pippa and the jumper/victim. There is also a past and present, which allowed us to see their lives before the incident. It seems like they are close to Pippa's family, but as the story progresses, you find out more about those relationships. This is a story about honesty, secrets, lies, family and a huge dose of mental health issues. I did enjoy the mystery and wanted to know what was going to happen next. I also wanted the family to sort things out as they did love each other and those little girls needed their parents. Although there were a lot of twists I didn't see coming, the story is believable and because of that, the ending was quite emotional and I finally got that AHA moment. If you enjoy a good mystery/thriller, then I recommend you pick up Soulmate.

This one was pretty good, but didn’t thrill as much as Sally’s other books. A couple twists, but also some predictability

This book had me hooked from the get-go and I had to hold on tight for all the twists Hepworth brilliantly delivered. Highly recommend!

Another winner by Sally Hepworth. Ended up staying up all night to finish it and it was exciting the whole way through.

What a whirlwind! I had not read any other books by Hepworth, but the domestic thriller genre seems to be perfectly exemplified by this novel. The characters were not always lovable and it was hard to guess what was coming next. The subject matter can be a little triggering, but as long as you are aware going into it, then you're fine.

I really enjoyed this one! It got me hooked at the beginning and I thought the characters were great.

I love domestic mysteries and this book absolutely scratches that itch. It’s not the twistiest or the most action filled but there are plenty of surprising moments and juicy secrets to uncover.
I enjoyed the somewhat unusual choice of having the victim’s POV throughout. It worked surprisingly well and gave an interesting perspective.
The plot has great momentum and I was able to race through this in just a few hours.
My biggest issue is that there is a conversation to be had about the impact of mental illness on a person’s actions and I’m just not sure this book does the subject justice. I felt very conflicted about that particular aspect which is why I’ve given this 3 stars instead of rounding up to 4.

This book was a middle of the road domestic thriller. I feel like they simply aren't for me. I feel like they are all the same.

Sally Hepworth NEVER disappoints. This book was fantastic.from the very first sentence, to the last, it kept me riveted.
Sally has a gift for insight and pacing. Thoroughly enjoyed this novel!

Sally Hepworth's The Soulmate is a domestic thriller that is easy to follow as the point of view changes between characters and between timelines. The action begins immediately and never lets up.

The Soulmate has all the usual domestic thriller tropes: infidelity, threats, secret pasts, and concerned family members who drop in unannounced. There are also two adorable daughters who bring joy to a story that, honestly, left me with a feeling of sadness.

Readers will want to be aware that themes of suicide and mental health challenges appear throughout the book.

There are a few points of misdirection in the book, nothing outrageous, but just enough to mislead the reader, and then reveal a truth. I do appreciate a subtle misdirect! Upon finishing the book, I initially thought that the ending was rushed; but after thinking it over, I've decided that all the pieces slot together nicely. It's not actually that the ending was rushed; rather, the author did a great job of pulling together all the characters and timelines to a fitting finish.

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Loved this twisty novel!

It opens with Pippa and Gabe, who live in a house on a cliff that is known for being a suicide spot. Pippa sees a woman on the cliff and Gabe heads out, intending to talk her down. When she jumps anyway, it starts a police investigation that reveals secrets that everyone is keeping.

Told in shifting POVs and timelines, Hepworth slowly pieces together the connections between the characters and the truth of what happened at the cliff.

I loved this one!
