About this listen

From USA Today best-selling author Mimi Matthews comes a Victorian tale of love and longing in a quaint English village.

A secret burden...

After a mysterious sojourn in Paris, Beryl Burnham has returned home to the village of Shepton Worthy, ready to resume the life she left behind.

Betrothed to the wealthy Sir Henry Rivenhall, she has no reason to be unhappy or so people keep reminding her. But Beryl's life isn't as perfect as everyone believes.

A longstanding love...

As village curate, Mark Rivenhall is known for his compassionate understanding. When his older brother's intended needs a shoulder to lean on, Mark's more than willing to provide one. There's no danger of losing his heart. He already lost that to Beryl a long time ago.

During an idyllic Victorian summer, friends and family gather in anticipation of Beryl and Sir Henry's wedding. But in her darkest moment, it's Mark who comes to Beryl's aid. Can he help her without revealing his feelings or betraying his brother?

I liked the book. It had a good plot and a great ending. Nothing too deep, but. Cute romance that ends well.

Good book. Short and sweet

Fair as a Star is an amazing story of a beautiful woman dealing with a mental illness. You don't really think of love stories in Victorian England and mental health issues. This love story brings together two people who love and complement each other despite the struggles and are better for it. I lice a story where the characters are not perfect.

Just an outstanding story that I loved!

A touching story if melancholia and true love. I so appreciated how Matthews handled this topic. And of course—a fabulous love story!

Lovely story!

I am never disappointed with a book written by Mimi Matthews. This is a bit shorter, but it was wonderful. The FMC has been dealing with something that is disclosed during the unfolding of the story. The issue is revealed with sensitivity although not all the characters offer the same level of compassion. It has a great HEA. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am happy to recommend it. Alex Wyndham narrates the Audible version and he’s terrific as always.

Delightful

A Stunning novella! I absolutely loved the writing but found this particular reader a bit difficult to endure at first. But it didn't effect the story. I'll be listening to this one again and again!

Stunning Historical Romance with a focus on mental health

I found it to be a little dryer than the Parish Orphans series which I adore. Still enjoyable. I look forward to the next book in the series!

Enjoyable

Mimi Matthews is my favorite author! Wyndham is my favorite narrator! highly recommend! Mimi writes her characters so authentic and genuine, the emotion and the *moderate* drama so believable and immersive, and Alex Wyndham performs it all so beautifully, I never get so lost as in one of her stories and especially as read by him!
Fair as a Star is short and sweet, good for a listen on some afternoon when you're doing your yard work or cleaning around the house - any other time!

So Damn Sweet
