Today we have a little something different for you, not a mini book review a film review. Enjoy!
Summary:
The Granger brothers Jace, Caden, and Dalton left behind their family’s Virginia estate and the bad memories it held after their father was falsely convicted for murdering their mother. Their dying grandfather’s request brings them home: to a failing business, a legacy of secrets and a deathbed promise to make things right. As the eldest brother, attorney Jace Granger is determined to take responsibility for Granger Aeronautics. Once there, the years of mismanagement seem impossible to untangle. As CEO, he hires a consultant to turn the company around. Smart, sexy Shana Bradford is the right person for the job and the right woman to turn Jace’s world upside down. She owns her own consulting business and knows how to handle difficult office situations, but finds it hard to resist the chemistry she feels with Jace. The passion between them is jeopardized when old secrets begin to emerge: a woman from Jace’s past suddenly reappears, and an explosive discovery that changes everything Jace thinks he knows about his parents. Jace Granger tried to leave his family history behind once before, but this time he needs to face the past or risk losing his future.
Review:
PassionFlix have once again brought us an adaptation of a steamy novel and made it into one of their movies, giving us beloved characters in real life form. Whether or not you are familiar with this novel or PassionFlix, one thing is clear, the steamy scenes are not shied away from, at all.
I haven’t read the novel which this film is based on, so am unfamiliar with the story and characters. Generally the film established our leads quickly and efficiently. We were thrown into the story with gusto and learn the ins and outs of the plot. The actors work well with the script they’re given, the female lead in particular is excellent, talented and a very beautiful lady.
Overall this wasn’t one of my favourites from PassionFlix, the actors are great in the roles they inhabit but for me this is one film I don’t think I’ll be watching again. I am sure the novel is a great read and a trope of the genre, but the film hasn’t pushed me to pick up a copy of the novel.
Everyone has their own personal tastes, you will either love or hate a film adaptation from a beloved book, however this isn’t one I am invested in, not whole heartedly anyway.
Hats off to PassionFlix for having the guts to take on some fantastic novels and the actors and actresses playing these characters, because they really are taking on a whole heap of expectations from readers.
I’d say give this a watch if you want an easy, enjoyable movie with a bit of spice but for me, once was enough.
