A Brother's Honor

I have to say, I read all 3 of these books and yes this one does drag out b/c it's the first one in the series. I really hope they film the last 2, they are so good and it'll be interesting to see how they put the story on screen.

Truthfully, I had low expectations for this movie; but it was good! It may not receive the notoriety of the 50 Shades franchise, but Brenda books and now movies are equally as entertaining. I hope they make some of the Westmoreland books into movies next!

Oh my goodness! It was refreshing to see a movie that follow the book as it was written. It was refreshing to see African Americans portrayed in positive roles. It was refreshing to Black Love. The characters appear to be falling in love right before our eyes. The chemistry was pretty good.Congratulations to Brenda Jackson and Tosca Musk for producing an enjoyable love story for all to see. Looking forward to Caden's story, A Man's Promise.

The adaptation from the book was good, however I think the story line was good, the details where there, cinematography and direction where good, however I didn't feel the chemistry and emotions I thought I would from the book descriptions. The story however is one very good to read, yet is good to watch at least once.

This is based on the first novel of Brenda Jackson's Granger Series about the Granger family, consisting of three brothers and their falsely accused and incarcerated father. The first book and this film focus on the eldest son Jace's story.

When their grandfather has a heart attack, all three brothers return home to be with him before he passes. They make a deathbed promise to him to save the family business, Granger Aeronautics. Once they arrive it is clear that nefarious things are going on at the company and they need to hire expert help. This is where Shana comes in. Shans and her team get to the bottom of the traitorous goings on and help the brothers right the ship of their company...all while having a fierce attraction to Jace, which goes against her non-fraternization policy at work. Unable to control themselves Jace and Shana eventually agree to a secret affair outside of work. But they have both been burned before and when a woman arrives from Jace's past and Shana gets some unexpected news...will they be able to build a romance?

Sexy and pretty true to the source material (I applaud Passionflix for that!). The film, like the book, does a lot of teasing for future stories. The other two brothers and their father's stories are heavily foreshadowed in Jace and Shana's story. So much so it gives the film version an unfinished feeling. Like what happened to the rest?

I am just thrilled that Passionflix is picking up and bringing to life these highly popular romance stories. This one was not my favorite...but I love the idea and I really have loved a bunch of their other films...Driven, Dirty Sexy Saint, The Will, Gabriel's Inferno, Afterburn/Aftershock, The trouble with Mistletoe, Matchmaker's Playlist and Resisting Roots! So, I want to be encouraging and supportive while at the same time saying this wasn't my favorite but I think it was more source material not direction or acting (which the acting was good and I really liked the two main characters).
