After a rocky marriage, irresistibly seductive Jay Crawford is ready for a new woman--and a new challenge. It doesn't take him long to discover both in one fine package: Ashlee Anderson. With a face and body that scream sex, she's just what he's looking for--hard-to-get, feisty, and freaky. But he'd never suspect just how freaky...
Ashlee turns out to be every bit as sexy as Jay suspected. What should've been a one-night stand extends into months of lovemaking that's too hot to give up and designed to burn him like never before. For Ashlee has no intention of letting their relationship ever end. Now Jay is in over his head with a woman who will go to any lengths to possess him. Trouble is, Ashlee's psycho behavior turns him on like nothing else. Maybe they're both crazy. But when Ashlee makes a shocking confession, Jay knows she definitely ain't the one and he's got to get away from her before she completely destroys his life...

THOUGHTS
Wow, this book was crazy and full of drama with a bit more crazy thrown in. This was not your typical romance novel with a happily ever after ending. For this book, the reviews for some sites are at least five hundred, and with others over a hundred. For most readers they either love the book or dislike the book, and I can relate to both sides with their views about this book. Also, Jay's character is from previous book by the author.
The book started out on a high note for me as I was reading along. I liked what both authors did by giving us each characters view pointed in telling the story. The first scene started out nice, with us getting to know Jay. Some of his thoughts were really funny as well as his introduction to Ashlee. By the second chapter Ashlee's thoughts and questions to herself gave you a sense of her craziness to come throughout the book. While Ashlee and Jay were getting to know each other, the story fizzled a little for me, however, with the twist and introduction of Tracy, definitely got me perky again. What followed next was a bundle of crazy, mixed with insanity. Ashlee went from jealous girlfriend, to insanely crazy and deadly ex.
I thought Jay, was so easily swayed throughout this book and that is what gets him in trouble and becomes his down fall. It annoyed me that the authors kept referring to the size of Jay's package. Pleasing to hear once or twice, ten times not hot anymore. The ending felt like you were left with a cliffhanger, but the events that took place was interesting.
As for Ashlee, you can't argue, reason or talk to crazy. It's unbelievable the lengths she goes to in this book.

I will say this novel helped to place my faith back into Carl Weber, because he step out of his character a little with this, and I like that. It also open my eyes to Mary B. style and writing. I'm looking forward to reading more of her work. The ending has me looking for the squel to this one for Carl Weber, and I'll research Mary B. to make sure I'll start at the beginning of this series.
The book is for adults because of it's theme, and issues, which involves, kiddnapping, rape, lots of sex, and one crazy chick!
Both writers did a good job with their characters. -It shows the truth about how men really don't have a chance in hell against women, unless she's weak.......food for thought.
All in all, it's a good read, it did take me a while to get through it, but I'll blame that on me not having the time to be still long enough to do so.

I read this book in one day, surprisingly I think I was more intrigued with the way Ashlee went from being a mild mannered woman to a crazy and deranged woman. Jay didn't stand a chance and he was so sex crazy that his mind was blown away because his ego got the best of him once he realized he had hit that thang the "G-spot" blowing Ashlee's mind he was done. She could have done anything and this nut would have gone for it, which is what happen and he ending up losing everything in the end.
A lot of sex going on — is not what a single sista need when she is all alone and without anyone to release all of that goings on that she is reading! -
I expected more from both authors and perhaps the collaboration is what threw their normal mojo off. Page after page consisted of more sex than meaningful conversation and I was ready to burn the book when the antagonist/she-devil threw another female off the cruise ship with absolutely no repercussion. The clincher for me was the antagonist asking her lover to give her another g-spot orgasm. So the next time you're in the mood, ask your lover using those exact words, "Can you give me a g-spot orgasm?" Awkward!

I've given this novel a 4 star rating but it's more like 3.5. The book is well written and interesting, but the ending was subpar and unrealistic, in my opinion, there the book left me unsatisfied. And I wasn't pleased when I finished it. So it felt like a real waste of my time. I also think people should read "Darius Jones" by Morrison before reading this book. "She Ain't the One" gives away too much of that story without telling readers they're connected. Really frustrating.

Ugh this was silly and predictable as hell. Hay-ted it!

I don't even know where to start about this read but Carl Weber and Mary B did their thing. Jay went from being a player to trying to settle down too quick. Ashlee truly took being crazy to an all new level. The lengths she decided to go to keep a man was beyond crazy. There were so many signs that Jay neglected. I wasn't sure how much more he had to deal with before realizing Ashlee wasn't too stable. A lot of red flags should've gone up after meeting Ashlee's mother. Tracy was cool but at one point I felt like she might have a hidden motive. Then the way she so easily believed any lie Ashlee told spoke volumes. That last scene proved just how crazy Ashlee could get when things didn't go her way. I bet Jay wished he had thought more on the situation before agreeing with Ashlee's requests. It's messed up how easily one can lie to destroy ones life because they no longer want them. Better yet I was trying to understand why no one who had dealt with Ashlee didn't speak on her condition. No matter how many things occurred, Ashlee only proved she ain't the one and probably never will be.

This book was wild. This was a great collabo with Carl Weber and Mary Morrison. I remember the character Ashlee from another book by Mary Morrison. Ashlee was a truly insane woman. I can't say I like the ending because I was hoping Jay would survive Ashlee's craziness. This is one time I'm looking forward to a sequel. Maybe these two will team up again to deliver one.

Oh my Goodness.... What a passionate, twisted, backstabbing psychological thriller. Phenomenal. The written techniques were unbelievably great. This book capatived my immediate attention from the first sentence to the very ending. The creative struggled with each character was overflowing with excitement and rich details.
I felt myself very emotional intrigued and compassionate for Jay and worried about his and his family safety because of Aslee instability and violent crimes against anyone and everyone around Jay.
The perfect ending to a pure evil woman, Aslee Anderson, a psycho, with a deranged mind, who was determined to ruin Jay Crawford and everyone around him lives. 😮🙁😕🙄. I am utterly speechless as to the length that Aslee when to to make sure that Jay suffered just because he actually loved her.
Highly recommended -
This book was amazing from the beginning to the end. It left me searching at the end of the book for details on a sequel. When I first purchased the book, I was trying to figure out how two authors would write a book such as this one. I still dont know which author had what voice but its an amazing book either way. My favorite part was when Ashlee tried to make it seem like darius raped her. I would reccomend it to all of my friends. Throught the story, Ashlee was obsessed with Jay. When he met her he felt a strong attraction. They dated and spent alot of time together. But when he bumps into his ex that he has been searching for, he finds that she had his child. He starts becoming a father figure in his life and starts picturing himself with her again, hopeing that they could be a happy family and make things right. He does everything to get her back and eventually they get back together, leaving Ashlee alone and hurt. She kidnaps their child hopeing it would change things, or make the mother, Tracy, leave Jay so that she could be with him again.

This was a wonderful book. Ashlee is one crazy bitch, and I don't use that word that often! I didn't see the end comming at all and was very shocked. I cant wait until they make the second part. At least that's what I think they hiunted at in the end when Jay said "He Aint the One" I hope Ashlee gets everything that comming to her. I will say I was very disappointed that Tracy didn't have more faith in Jay than she did. This book teaches a good lesson that sometimes you should look and not touch. If Jay would have thought with his head a little more than his smaller head he would have picked up on all the warning signs!

Incredibly entertaining, but the most poorly written one I’ve ever read by Weber. A lot of it was repeating, some very corny parts—like the terrible attempt at poetry at the end, and the ending was all mish mashed together and rushed through.
-
This book identified toxic relationships at its best. It highlighted how sex could only take you so far in a REALationships. I was annoyed that they fell in “love” so fast. Jay and Ashlee were in Lust but it quickly turned crazy. The book was amazing
-
I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!
-
Hot, Steamy & Crazy! Be Careful What You Wish For!
-
Chile this book was off the chain Ashlee Is off the chain .... and funny. if men are such a problem why not just stop dating all together .... Jay definitely wasn’t a player because a real player won’t lie or play games ....... he couldn’t be there for his own kids but jumped up to help raise the new one .... Both characters pissed me off only person that had common sense In this book were Ashlee’s dad & Kyle
-
This just goes to show you that men can be naive too. Jay's poor judgement led him to fall into Ashlee's trap. He ended up in a messed up situation. As for Ashlee, that b***h needs more than a stray jacket with her looney self!
-
Can we say cray cray? Girl you was a looney looney female sex with your step brother then she met Jay and went the extra crazy mile...
Jay got caught up and now I am about to read part two so I can see how this turn out ... -
This one was OK for me because I usually expect his books to be a lot more funnier than this one was.
Plus I was upset with the ending… I didn't think it should have ended like that. -
One of the most bomb books ever. Anyone can write, but not everyone can tell a story. These two authors can surely tell a story frontward and backward. I loved it.
-
I've never read anything by Mary B. Morrison before and loved it. I decided to start the soulmates dissipate series after reading this. Jay and Ashlee... Hot!
-
It was entertaining reading just how crazy Ashlee was but the plot was a little dragged out.
-
Quickie
This book had tons of sexual energy. The plot was unbelievable. It was very easy to get through but I didn't connect with any characters . -
This was a crazy yet amazing good book
-
I hate how this book ended!
-
Not very thought provoking but I don’t believe this was meant to be a think peace. Just something exciting for some.
-
Even though it's book 7 in the soulmates dissipate, it's also book 2 in Carl Weber's A Man's World series. In this book, we find out what happens to playboy Jay. He links up with a woman named Ashlee, and let's just say he got himself into a world of trouble. Good read and I enjoyed it.

She Ain’t the One is my first book I’ve read by both Authors. I had no idea that both Ashlee Anderson & Jay Crawford were characters from other series of books.
Overall I thought this novel was good. The first part of book just contained to much unnecessary sex for me. I felt like every chapter had at least a page and a half or two of just sex escapades. I’m saying this as a fan of Erotica, too. Since I didn’t know Ashlee’s background I kept asking myself what is this chick’s history. Well she sure showed her true colors toward the end of the story. I was floored at the things this woman did. She was the epitome of insecure, and CRAZY! You say KARATE, I say CRAZY! As others have stated, the ending leaves a lot to the imagination. They definitely leave the door open for another sequel, He Ain’t the One. I really really hope Ashlee gets hers because she dogged out Jay FORREAL! Major shocker towards the end of the story.
