He’s the arrogant Manhattan realtor with billboards advertising his six-pack more than his expertise in negotiations.I’m the competing broker who stupidly moved across the hall from his office.From day one, I’ve been his sworn enemy. Okay, so I might have accidentally stolen one of his clients. Well, is it stealing if the client comes to me?Even our vicious banter and loathing gazes can’t hide … loathing gazes can’t hide the chemistry between us. Who can blame me? He has enough charisma to make every hot-blooded woman in the city melt with a single word.
Just when I think a mutual respect could be born between us, the biggest developer in the city offers us an opportunity that pits us against each other.
Time to forget Carmelo Mancini’s dreamy eyes and tight abs.
Game on.
Cover coming soon!

These authors always keep you coming back with these amazing characters. I can’t pick a favorite book character because I love them all so much. Carm is electric as we knew he would be when we saw him in Enzo’s story. He lives life like we all should – going after what he wants and not giving up until he gets it. Loved all the interaction between characters!!!! This book does not disappoint – which Mancini brother will be your favorite – I just can’t answer that until we have Dom’s story!!!! These White Collar Brothers are off the charts!!!!
Dirty Flirty Enemy has everything you need from a well written ememy-to-lovers romance book… awesome characters, witty banter, sexual tension, great chemisty, and love.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
Carm is the guy you can’t wait to be taken down by love. He razzes his brother, Enzo, for losing his man card to the emotion. Enzo does whatever Annie wants but that won’t be Carm…or so he thinks. He keeps crossing paths with a competing realtor he calls the ‘she-devil’ but he can’t help his wild attraction to her. Bella is building her business but Carm doesn’t like how close she is. I enjoyed this book and the series so far. I cannot wait for Dom’s book next! This is a voluntary review of an advance reader copy.
A sexy enemies to lovers read that I couldn’t put down. This book stood out more for me than the past books I have read by Piper Rayne. I felt the story had more emotion and an edge that kept me on my toes. I almost felt like I was holding my breath at times. I love when an author throws a curve ball at you showing how incredibly talented they are (both of them lol). The characters are amazing as always and I can’t wait for the next book to come out.
Dirty Flirty Enemy is book 2 in the White Collar Brothers series, and I was really excited to read Carmelo’s story after he was introduced in the first book, Sexy Filthy Boss.
This book is exactly what I look for in enemies to lovers romance. Hatred, witty banter, steamy encounters, and undeniable attraction, all wrapped up in a rom-com bow.
Bella & Carm are perfect for each other, they just won’t admit it. A real-estate agent & FSBO (for sale by owner) agent with offices across the hall from each other, the tension is already high between these two as they compete for clients and sales. But when a golden opportunity comes up, the competition is amped up, as is the sexual tension.
After meeting Carm in his brother’s book I knew he was more than he seemed. Flirty & funny, he’s a playboy who appears not to take life seriously. But he’s so much more, and only a few chapters in he had me hooked. Bella is strong and independent, or so she appears. Deep down she’s struggling with her new career and life choices, trying to keep herself afloat. But competing with Carm brings out her inner feisty redhead, and she shines throughout the book.
With a will they or won’t they vibe, awesome supporting characters, and sizzling encounters, this book is definitely a hit! I can’t wait for more of these characters in book 3, and to see what magic Piper Rayne has in store for readers. While I love Enzo & Carm, I have a feeling Dom’s book is going to full of even more surprises!
Sparks are flying off my Kindle with Piper Rayne’s Dirty Flirty Enemy! Carm and Bella blew me away in this sexy, fun and flirty new book!
Carm is a confident, successful man who you would take one look at and think he’s a jerk. Bella is not a rule-breaker and is working hard to bring her new business venture off the ground. But when Carm thinks Bella stole a customer of his, all bets are off between these two and that’s what the real fun starts 😉
Carm and Bella have the most amazing chemistry and the sexual tension is downright HOT. Both are hard workers, have their own ideas of how relationships should work and are dabbling in a little love/hate relationship of their own!
This story was fantastic, and I have to say I’m not sure how Piper Rayne is going to top Enzo and Carm’s stories!! I can’t wait to find out!
Freaking loved it!!
Y’all Carm is gonna light those panties up!! He and Bella are wonderful characters who are perfect together. Remember we met him in Enzos book, that’s where I started falling for him. But now after getting his story I’m all in.
These two have a funny playful banter, I loved their story. We have Don up next and I have a feeling it’s gonna be a doozy. Great read!

An enemies-to-lovers romance that will heat things up and tug on your heart strings.
Carm is successful, arrogant, self-assured and a workaholic. He has his moments of being a jerk, but underneath the facade is a great guy. He’s just got his own hang ups and can’t imagine a life with just one woman.
Bella’s starting out in a new business venture. She’s seems like a total rule follower, but when she lets loose she is so much fun. She can give as good as she gets and Carm has met his equal.
Carm and Bella have chemistry in spades. They are in the same field of work, competing for clients. Each is the other’s greatest competition. Carm doesn’t like to lose…ever. Their attraction is real but they are both determined to ignore their feelings and keep things professional.
Sounds easy, except circumstances and mutual friends keep bringing them together outside the office. They form a truce but it only makes their hands-off agreement that much more difficult because getting to know each other just heightens their attraction.
Sparks fly between Carm and Bella so get ready. He’s more than you imagined and you’re going to love him. Everyone loves a man that is a people pleaser . I am enjoying the Mancini family and cannot wait for Dom’s story.
As soon as I met Carm in the first book of this series I couldn’t wait to get his story. I knew watching the self-proclaimed forever bachelor finally meet his match would be fun. Piper and Rayne did not disappoint. They delivered everything I love about a good enemies-to-lovers story, and then gave me so much more. They proved yet again, why they are some my go-tos when it comes to Rom-Com. Dirty Flirty Enemy is full of witty back and forth with so much sexual tension you could feel it coming off the pages.
Carm and Bell are absolutely perfect for each other. Both of them trying to build a business in the same field yet opposites ends. Both of them sure that they have no time for a relationship. I couldn’t get enough of the push and pull between these two.
I am in love with this series and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next one!
Carm and Bella dislike one another without really knowing anything about the other person. Bella dislikes Carm because of his sexy billboards that entice sellers to list their properties with him and Carm hates FSBO (For Sale By Owner) properties and that is what Bella does, she lists their properties on MLS so they can be seen by buyers. You would think that this is trivial but the hate between the two really cause sparks to fly when Bella steals a client from Carm.
This story takes the enemies-to-lovers trope and shows just how fine the line is between love and hate. The sparks fly, the sexy times are Hot, and another Mancini brother has succumbed to falling in love. I really enjoyed this book and it was a great addition to the series, which can be read as a standalone. We have one more brother, Dom, left to find his true love and I honestly cannot wait to see how his story plays out.
If you are new to Piper Rayne this is a perfect time to jump in, and if you have read and enjoyed any of their other books you’ll love this one.
Happy Reading!!!
The second in the White Collar Brother series, and I swear these are just getting better. Carm oozes sex appeal out of his pores, women (besides his mother, sister, and now sister-in-law) are used for one thing, and after he gets that one thing, he is out the door, no strings, no mess, no fuss… you get the picture. When Bella moves her office into the same building and the same floor as Carm’s office, he looks at it as he would anything, a bit of competition, but when she ends up “stealing” one of his clients, all bets are off. Now the two end up competing for a building, a race to see who can sell a whole floor fastest. Both hating each other and aiming to win, both denying that there is an attraction between them. Whenever they are together, they both spew hate, but sparks fly every time. What happens when they are forced to spend more time together? Can the two maintain the hate they claim to have?
I really enjoyed this new addition to the series! Carm’s book was perfect! The chemistry that just radiates off the pages, the drama that makes your heart patter a bit faster, naughty bits that can make you flush, and a wee bit of violence that can make you cringe. This played out like a movie in my head and I loved every bit of it. I can’t wait to see what Dom’s book brings. This gets 5 stars.
Carmelo Mancini is known all over Manhattan as a realtor with the six pack of abs due to billboards with them pasted all over the city. Yet he manages to be extremely successful with both men and women and knows how to get deals done.
Bella Scott is a broker who just moved into the office space across from Carmelo and when she happens to steal one of his clients things escalate quickly.
Yet soon Bella and Carmelo realize there is more to the other one than they suspected but when the competition heats up even more the two must figure out where their loyalties lay before someone gets hurt.
This is another book filled with so many laughs and steamy scenes to please every audience!
I love Carmelo and love how his mom wants him to hurry up and settle down because his cousins have all found their partners! One of my favorite parts is also still the rock, paper, scissors every time the game is played! I loved that he “used” his own image to get more clients and would do anything he had to in order to remain at the top of his game.
Bella was much more complex and you could tell that there were events from her past that made her so guarded with everything. She was reluctant to take hand outs but at the same time she needed to win the competition with Carmelo to get Greg’s business.
There were a few characters that I didn’t like in this book and I hated the way 2 in particular treated Bella for the sake of business. I loved the weekends with everyone together and so much happened between Bella ad Carmelo while they were away.
I was totally freaking out towards the end with everything that happened between Bella and Carmelo and then a huge twist in the book with big implications!! I was so glad that Carmelo was at the right place at the right time!
The end was awesome and I loved what Carmelo did for Bella and himself!
This is the second book in the White Collar Brothers Series. Carm and Bella’s is a great enemies to lovers story, fun and sexy. They share a strong and sizzling chemistry. Carm is a playboy, but he is so much more than that! He is so protective and caring with Bella. Bella is a strong and beautiful woman. I loved to see Enzo and Annie again, and to have an update to their story as well. I love the ending, and the Epilogue is a great introduction to the next book in the Series, Wild Steamy Hook-Up, Dom’s story. I enjoyed reading this story, and I highly recommend it. I love this Series. The Mancini Brothers are handsome! I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy.
4 stars
There are a few things that are a given in a Piper Rayne book; it’s going to be funny and it’s going to be hot and this author duo serves up more of the same with Dirty Flirty Enemy!
I adored the first book in the series so much and while I did love this one, my heart still belongs to Enzo Mancini! Enzo’s younger and more arrogant brother Carmelo. Carm is an arrogant NYC playboy. As one of NYC’s premier realtors and ridiculously gorgeous, women flock to him and he scoops them up like fish in a barrel. Except the girl across the hall. The new FSBO girl who moved in across the hall and promptly stole his client. She’s the enemy but she’s also the one girl he can’t get off his mind.
Bella has her reasons for jumping ship from the traditional realty shop where she was at the top of her game to opening up her own FSBO shop. She’s working her butt off to make a go of it but even more so now that she’s competing against NYC’s billboard babe. Carm Mancini knows how to advertise, that’s for sure! Moving in across the hall was a mistake. He’s too arrogant, too polished, too… distracting!
Dirty Flirty Enemy was great, as usual. I didn’t like it as much as the first book but it was funny, sexy and charming. The brothers are still adorable but with the added bonus of Enzo all loved up now. He and Annie are awesome! Bella is a little spitfire who gives Carm a run for his money. Great read!

The Mancini brothers are back and this time it is Carm’s story. This story may be one of my favorite enemies to lovers romance EVER. I couldn’t put it down. The banter was perfect, the chemistry was perfect and it was STEAMY! Carm and Bella are seriously one swoon worthy couple and will have you completely hooked from the very beginning.
Carm is a hotshot real estate broker and Bella is not making his job easy with her FSBO business, that just so happens to be right across the hall. Of course, they are both instantly attracted to each other and their friends and family like to meddle so they keep being forced so spend time together. Will Bella be the one to change Carm?
Don’t tell Enzo, but Carm may be my favorite Mancini brother. Despite his playboy ways and his jerk mentality at the beginning, he majorly redeems himself and his super swoon worthy. Not to mention the banter between him and Bella is some of the best I’ve read. I was laughing so hard throughout most of this story.
Despite all the laughs and the steaminess, this story also has some seriousness to it and I think Piper Rayne did a great job at portraying that and the struggles that go with it.
This is another hit by Piper Rayne and a MUST READ. I can’t wait to see what is in store for Dom!
Dirty Flirty Enemy is book two in the White Collar Brothers series. It can be read as a standalone. This story is Carmelo Mancini (Carm) and Bella’s story. If you read Sexy Filthy Boss then you already meet Carm and you’ll also be happy to know that Enzo and Annie make appearances in this one too.
Carm is a big time real estate broker. He’s sexy, funny and definitely swoon worthy. Bella is smart and sexy. I liked her. She’s in real estate too and has an office in the same building as Carm. Bella isn’t a real estate broker but instead she has a For Sale by Owner Company. She and Carm don’t start off on the right foot and they see each other as competition. They don’t stay enemies very long. These two have great chemistry. Towards the end it took a little serious side, that surprised me. Overall this one was a good read. I can’t wait to read Dom’s story next.
Piper Rayne has certainly become a go to author for hot romantic comedy and Dirty Flirty Enemy was everything I have come to expect from these very talented authors.
Book 2 in the White Collar Brothers and it’s Carmelo “Carm” Mancini turn to get his story and what a story he has to tell. Carm is a playboy , he is cocky and arrogant but he has so much charm and is very hard to resist but that’s exactly what Bella Scott is trying to do she is not about to fall for her new business rivals wit and charm……
A harebrained scheme throws this couple together and what follows is a wonderful read that’s full of love, passion, humour and plenty of witty banter. This enemies to lovers romance is perfect, I loved everything about this book, the chemistry is sizzling, the banter flows so naturally, I loved the plot and I loved watching Carm and Bella’s relationship grow. Can’t wait for book 3 in what is one of my favourite series of 2019.
Rivals in business does not mean that the attraction can’t be there. Bella and Carm compete for the same clients but watch what happens when they are pitted against each other while they start to socialize. The attraction is hot, the spark is ready to ignite and once burned can they manage the aftermath? This was a fun story to read not only to witness the hot and cold between Carm and Bella but also getting to see more of the Mancini brother’s relations
Welcome addition to the White Collar Brothers series. I love reading enemies to lovers romances and Piper Rayne delivered a great one. Perfect blend of banter, snark and sweet and sexy times. Carm totally wormed his way into my heart. He and Bella had undeniable chemistry. Loved the setup for the next book-can’t wait for Dom to meet his match.
