Natalie Kurtsman

Personality
Natalie is very pretentious and uptight when the series begins, and because of that she doesn’t have any friends at the start. However, as the book went on and she started making friends, her pretentiousness started to wear away and she became much kinder.

Appearance
Not much is said about Natalie’s appearance, other than the fact that she always dresses professionally and has long hair. In The Perfect Secret, Trevor’s brother, Brian, says that Natalie’s cute. In The Perfect Star, Trevor talks about how he thinks Natalie’s hot.

Randi Cunningham (Close Friend)
In the beginning, Randi wasn’t too fond of Natalie, based mainly on the fact that Gavin didn’t like her. However, Randi sees that Natalie isn’t actually that bad and the two start to grow closer as friends.

Trevor Joseph (Boyfriend)
(See: Trevor and Natalie)

At the very beginning of the series, Trevor and Natalie couldn’t stand each other. Trevor never liking what a know-it-all Natalie was, and Natalie never liking what a jerk Trevor was. Although, nearing the end of The Perfect Score, after Natalie isn’t quite so stuck-up and Trevor isn’t such a jerk, the two start to become friends. In The Perfect Secret, the two start to become attracted to one-another and decide to start a relationship at the end of their seventh-grade year, deciding to keep their new relationship a secret.

Scott Mason (Close Friend)
Scott was the first real friend Natalie had, despite her dislike of him at the beginning. Natalie always had a distaste in how messy Scott was, but after Scott asked her to join his team in their after-school program, she started to like him and want to be his friend.

Gavin Davids (Friend)
Not much is said about the relationship between Gavin and Natalie other than the fact that until sixth-grade, Gavin hated Natalie - based on the history with their parents - and Natalie wasn't too fond of Gavin either. After uncovering the history between Gavin's father and Natalie's mother, the two decide to put the past behind them and start a friendship.
