REVIEW: The Soulmate by Sally Hepworth was my first book by this author. She has a few more out, but this book came up as an option in a monthly service I belong to. I chose it and I’m glad I did. I have a few thoughts I would like to share with you.

The story was pretty good. It was one that I found a little bit unbelievable in parts. One of the characters was very forgiving of her husband’s indiscretions and we are made to believe another wife took her life over an indiscretion of her husband. I found each story a little hard to swallow. As the story worked out, I was better able to grasp the reasoning. I did like the premise of the story. That caught my interest right away.

The character development had me a little confused. I didn’t understand the actions of some of them. Mental illness definitely plays a part in this book. I’m not sure where the line between sane and insane is drawn. Love in its many forms is foremost in this book. 

I could not believe how this book ended and the twist I didn’t see coming! The author ties up the ending of this book very well. It was sad and beautiful at the same time. If you love the highs and lows of love relationships, business dealings that sometimes go wrong and a good mystery with suspense, I think this book will cover all of that. Until next time…Happy Reading!
