Inside Out — Grayson Cole

Inside: Tracey never fit in anywhere as a child, so she works hard to make college different. Out in the world, she doesn't talk about her parents, or her travels, or the languages she speaks. She doesn't talk much at all because it frequently leads to black people asking why she talks "white" and white people asking where she's from. No one believes she is a native Southerner.

But the people she meets in grad school aren't satisfied with knowing her only on the surface and Garrett Atkins--well, he isn't satisfied at all because, even though she can't help falling in love with his Southern charm and overall gorgeousness, Tracey isn't about to be "that girl" who ends up with a white husband.

Out: Entering his last year in law school, Garrett Atkins can't complain about his life. At graduation, he's guaranteed a job in a prestigious firm... and a wife. But one mix-up on campus introduces him to stubborn, snide and sexy Tracey McAlpine. She may not be what's best for him, but God help him, she's what he wants, and Rett has never been a man who has accepted being told he can't have what he wants, no matter the consequences.
