Something Borrowed Lexi Ostrow

Adrianna is ecstatic for her best friend to be getting married. When a last minute issue prevents the Best Man from arriving, the bride's older brother, Jaxon, stands in for him and walks Adrianna down the aisle. A borrowed Best Man turns into a romantic encounter that is quickly complicated thanks to his career in the Marines and a stationing that is not New Orleans. Jaxon wasn't ready for Adrianna. So many years had been spent living in the shadows of his mind from the things he'd seen and done that she'd been a breath of fresh air. He'd watched her grow up, and yet, he hadn't truly seen her until she'd met him at the end of the aisle in a pale purple dress. Years of a semi-friendship flamed into a one-night stand he didn't want to lose. His world was difficult, but he knew it was better with her in it. What started as a simple wedding partnering was quickly turning into love. Communication and a short visit prove to Jaxon and Adrianna they were meant to be. They'll just have to make it to the end of Jaxon's deployment to see what something borrowed can really turn into.
