NO. However, if she filed an answer to the divorce and asked to dismiss your complaint she can unnecessarily prolong the process and increased the costs. Divorce in Tennessee can be easy or complicated. Costs can range from $900 to $90,000+. Be careful, choose the right attorney.

Tennessee is NOT techinically a "no-fault" state. The grounds of irreconcilable differences can only be used when both spouses agreed to the division of property, care of the children and ALL other issues. If there is any disagreement, it is considered a contested divorce.
