She uses everything in her to ward off the advances of her employer. His threats to have her on his return from a business trip drives Prudence into action.

Members Reviews:
The author nailed another one
If you could sum up Minding Benji in three words, what would they be?

Benji. For a baby, he seemed to know that God had his best interest at heart and was going to make everything ok.

I got this book via audiobook boom and enjoyed it. The story was well developed and ended well.
Delightful Western Romance
Becoming a mail order bride appears to be the only solution to Prudence's increasingly
precarious present situation. She accepts an offer to become the wife of Austin, a man who is in danger of losing everything unless he marries. When Prudence is about to board the
train, an old man thrust a baby, along with a note in her arms and fled. Prudence has suddenly become responsible for her brother's baby. When she arrives at her destination, her intended is very unhappy about the child, but grudgingly accepts the situation. Adding to the enjoyment of the book, is the audible narration expertly done by C.J. McAllister. His mellow tones make each character quite distinct without exaggeration. I recommend this delightful book to all Western romance fans.
Sweet novella with a good, solid story
Would you listen to Minding Benji again? Why?
I wouldn't listen to Minding Benji again. It was a good one time novella, but I don't typically listen to or read books more than once unless they are absolutely fabulous-I'm talking Game of Thrones good. That isn't to say that this isn't a good novella though.
What did you like best about this story?
I was just a good, sweet novella that was enjoyable to listen to. There wasn't one particular thing that stuck out as the "best" part of the story. I suppose if I had to pick something, it would be the end, where everything falls into place as it should and everyone gets their happy ending.
