Back in high school, nobody noticed quiet nerd Kevin Howard.

For Julia, because of everything you do to bring my books to life in German.

Chapter 1

I PULLED off the eighth shirt I’d tried on and tossed it onto the bed.

I’m not going, I said, making my mind for the last time. I put my hands on my hips and turned around.

Nathan, my best friend since sixth grade, stood in the bedroom doorway of my apartment, staring at me, shaking his head. Right, Kevin. You’re so not going, he said, his voice ringing with sarcasm. Put on the blue shirt you tried on first and forget the stupid tie. This is a class reunion, not an audience with the queen. He stepped forward, snapped up the shirt, and sent the others fluttering through the air.

Now you made a mess. I groaned softly.

"No. It’s where those things belong, Nathan retorted. He glared at me until I put on the shirt and buttoned it. Without prompting, he fussed with my collar until it was just the way he wanted it and then stepped back. I unbuttoned my pants to tuck the shirt in. Stop. Wear it out. It’s cut to be worn untucked." He smoothed his hands down the front of my chest, brushing away imaginary lint.

I probably should have been grateful. It was the most I’d been touched in two years.

Nathan continued his shoulder-brushing routine, and I figured I’d be better off falling in love with him rather than the guys I usually picked, but there had never been anything between us.

Do I look presentable now?

Almost. Hold out your arm. He rolled his eyes when I demurred, and smiled when I complied. Nathan slipped four of his stone-bead bracelets over my wrist, making sure they were artfully aligned. There. You look cool and understated.

The lapis, agate, white moonstone, and onyx beads felt strange, cool and a little tight.

Do I really need these? I asked, bringing my wrist upward to look at the emblem attached to one of them. It jangled as I moved.

Yes. This one is one of a kind. It’s an 1886 German mark. I got it especially for you because you speak German. It screamed you when I saw it. He smiled, and I realized these were a gift. "You can’t spend the rest of your life as Frumpy McFrumpster. I know you’re nervous, so there will be a little bit of me along with you. Whenever you feel
