Her aunt and cousins didn't treat her like a relative, they treat her like a slave. In her school life, she's always been bullied because she's smart and her classmates think she's an ugly and boring nerd. She used to be afraid of everything since she lost her parents at a very young age and her aunt used to abuse her. She has no friends, except Riley. They've been bestfriends since 3rd grade. Riley is always there for Phoebe when she has problems or bullied, Riley is always there to protect Phoebe.
"Riley is always there for me. Whenever I have problems, he's always there to comfort me. Whenever I'm bullied, he's always there to protect me. He is like my brother, my comforter, and my soldier."

Her Brother's Best Friend - Aching Hearts Series #2
If asked, baby Emily Robinson would have gleefully said that, her life revolved around two cornerstones: volleyball, Riley. Volleyball was the passion that gave her life. Riley was the "special friend" that fueled said passion and offered an otherwise insecure, shy little girl the means to grow up strong, confident, badass. Professional volleyball was a dream close to becoming true. Riley was reality. The most reassuring one. If asked, Emily would have said, she could not live without those two. That's why when, in a matter of months, she loses both, Emily's life starts spiraling down. The self consciousness about her looks goes from easily containable to fullout war waging deep inside her, menacing to bring her down any minute. So when, four years later, Riley comes back, he finds that his cutely shy Honeybee has turned into a beautiful quasi woman that is inexplicably paralyzed by fears. How can he help her regain the strength she had? And what happens when he starts realizing that indeed, his Honeybee is no longer a child, she's become a dangerously attractive girl. How can he help her fight her demons, without letting his mind and heart stray? He can't fall for the same child he used to babysit ... or can he?
