As you probably know by now, my second BookBub feature came out last week for HER HERO TO LOVE. The book has been selling well and I couldn’t be happier, but it’s still on sale through Valentine’s Day, so it’s still on my mind (hence this blog).
If you haven’t downloaded your free copy of HER HERO TO LOVE, you can grab it here from your favorite vendor: BOOKS2READ.
While setting up some promo this past week, I got thinking about “Men Friends” or, as some say: “Bromances.”
Because I’m a big fan of family sagas, I often choose to write about characters connected by birth, but not this time. The three heroes of the Love, Montana series are best friends. As different in personality and background as the Three Musketeers, Flynn, Tucker and Justin, are heroes in their own way—and hunks, any way you define the word.
This, of course, got me thinking about the Three Musketeers movies. When I Googled the title, I found listings from movie versions dating back to Don Ameche in 1939 (way before my time 😉 ) to a wide variety of cartoons and live action spin-offs, such as the Man In The Iron Mask.
We watched THE MAN IN THE IRON MASK last night. We’d seen it before but I’d forgotten so much. Lots of chuckles and even a tear or two. Something about this franchise just resonates with me.
My two brothers were eight years apart, so not close at all. Or maybe it was because Mom left older brother babysitting one day and when she returned her neighbor told her my older brother nailed baby brother’s diaper to the roof of the garage while he and his friends shot baskets. LOL.
I’m a bit of an old movie buff, but I can’t seem to think of a movie at the moment. Actually, there were three movies which paired Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra: Anchors Away, On The Town (the best of the three), and Take Me Out to the Ball Game. Those were good bromance movies. Thinking of Bing Crosby and Bob Hope, too. They had movies with a lot of adventure. I’ll stop there.
Oh, yes! The road trip movies those two made were great. We watched White Christmas this year and were amazed by how “sexist” it was, but, of course, at the time that was the norm. Thanks for the suggestions.
Loved the original….also know many men who have lifetime friends….my brothers, sons….all as close as brothers
My hubby is one of five boys, and he’s very close to his brothers. But he’s had several close friends over the years, too.

I have two brothers; they’re closer to each other than they are to me. Not surprising. lol
