Rate this book
For seventeen-year-old Delaney Ragein McGuff, life hasn't been easy. Forced to get a job because both of her parents are strung out on drugs, Delaney, the oldest of five siblings, skips straight over her childhood and focuses on being there for her sisters and brothers. She then meets Onijae Love, while at work one day. Almost instantly, she became attracted to him, but he was a bit older than her, and way out of her league.

Onijae Love, a well-known businessman, is twenty-four, and one of the handsomest men living in the state of Texas. Not only that, but he also has a fat ass bank account to go with it. With a head full of dreads and a body a bitch would cream over, he's every woman's dream, but he only has eyes for longtime girlfriend, Bianca Harris.

That was until he laid eyes on the beautiful Ms. Delaney McGuff, and finds himself constantly thinking about her, much more than he should.

Bianca’s been by Onijae's side through everything, and she has no plans to leave it. Even though she has a few secrets of her own, she will be damned if she lets someone else get what is rightfully hers. She’s willing to do anything necessary to be Onijae’s only woman, no holds barred.

This blazing tale of a love triangle, danger, betrayal, lies and deceit, will unfold, and leave you Can two women share one man, or will everything come crashing down around them? Which one of them will decide that they Can’t Be That Other Woman?

The book was good, I just hate how it ended. It's like the author didn't really know how to end it. I understand books are left with a cliffhanger but I think the author could have done a little more with it. The story line was good, and i am hoping there is a part 2 because it was really good and I would recommend it to my friends.

Still Thinking?

Okay I could list many things that are wrong with this story but I will not,because if you've read this story you already know.Overall this was a pretty good story but somewhere along the way it just goes haywire.I love the storyline of a big sister stepping up taking control of her family.What I can't get past is one moment you have so mature and responsible and the next a young girl with no home training.I am a little wary of the way this story is proceeding and I wait till the next installment to really say what I feel.

Great Book

I really enjoyed the book. It was a real page turner and was glued to my kindle. I am hoping that Delaney and Onijae makes it. Bianca dos not deserve Onijae and needs to leave hi, alone. Tracy is a good friends and I love her loyalty. On to book 2

Can't Be That Other Woman

Bianca is so annoying. She is beyond crazy and needs to accept the fact she messed things up and can't expect Onijae to forget what's she's done. I have questions concerning her situation because I know Onijae was being careful considering she'd proven she couldn't be trusted. Delaney is a very strong minded person and the love she has for her siblings is amazing. Yeah she had a lot going on in her life but she handled it so well. Tracy is a mess but I love the relationship between her and Delaney. I do need her to put Onijae up on who she's dealing with though so it won't cause any complications. Delaney was having a fun week but I'm wondering if she'll end up like her sister. I was curious to know more about Delaney's parents because there wasn't much mentioned about them. I was hoping more would come about with Aqura but only time will tell. I'll be waiting for part 2 and see if Bianca's secrets come tumbling out and karma finally catches up and if Delaney really won't be the other woman.

Well-written story, but the age-gap relationships were so unsettling lol…What was the point? I know all books aren’t lesson-driven, but how is a questionable age-gap supposed to be entertaining?

A 24 year-old man asking his 17 year-old sister to put him on her, also, 17 year-old best friend? Chasing after her when he has a 25 year-old fiancée? If there was no lesson to be learned, why make the girls so young? It just came off a little gross and unnecessary to me.

I was hoping it would make sense at the end of the story, but the ending was so lazy and thrown together. There was a perfect opportunity to end with a cliff hanger that could lead to a second book because there’s so many unanswered questions! I hope the author continues this story, though. I would love to know what happens next with the girls!

Great Read

I loved the book to the furthest. Delaney and Onijae is a trip. I can understand Delaney not wanting to get involve with him. Bianca with her stinky bottom. I have a strong feeling that Daija is gonna be pregnant by someone mention in the book. They ending kinda had me becuz I was wondering where was Dallas at. I need to go back in read that piece. A few errors but it didn't take away from the story tho.

Why did Onijae take Bianca back caught in his house and his bed. I thought that Tracy didn't like Delaney. Daija need her butt beat. Delaney doing everything that she can for her sisters and brothers. This book had me in tears. I felt for them. I hope that Carlos is Bianca baby father. Onijae is real jealous. He needs to leave Bianca. Delaney don't need to be his side chic. Can't wait to see what happens in Part two

Pretty good read

This was a pretty good read. Nothing but deceit, lies and drama from beginning to end. A very refreshing change from the usual dope boy stories that I have read in the past. Poor Delaney had to take on a lot of responsibility in her young life. I hope that she will be able to find her own happiness in part 2.

Really enjoyed this book

Oh goodness my heart breaks for Delaney. She has been through so much and I am sure it is going to get a lot worse before it gets better for her. I am so glad she has a friend like Tracy in her corner. I can't wait to see how everything unfolds with Bianca and Onijae in part 2.

Quick read

I enjoyed the book. The title contradicts itself because Delaney kept trying to be the other woman. Storyline was good and left me wanting more. Delaney deserves happiness and I hope in the next book she gets it.
