'An easy five stars' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Everybody needs saving sometimes...

For Kate, having a newborn baby means she is almost never alone. But that doesn't mean she isn't lonely. The move from London to Somerset with her husband Jay was supposed to be the start of an exciting new chapter. But sometimes she can't help but wonder if she turned the pages too soon...

Phoebe needs help. As a mental health nurse serving her community, the wellbeing of her patients has always come before her own. Yet there's only so long she can pour from an empty cup.

Looking for a lifeline, Kate and Phoebe find a sense of community - and each other - through their local river swimming group. But when things get tough, they realise that good friends can both raise us up and stop us from sinking.

For fans of The Lido, The Lifeline is the big-hearted and life-affirming follow-up novel by Sunday Times bestselling author Libby Page.
