A great start to the White Collar Brother series. The duo of Piper Rayne sure know how to write book boyfriends. Enzo started off gruff but I completely fell for him as he stated to open up. Annie was so relatable. She and Enzo had so much chemistry. Loved the dual perspective. Looking forward to the rest of this series, especially Carmelo’s story.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC.
Loved this! Piper Rayne always know how to kick off a new series with a great opening book…and middle and ending book. The Mancini brothers are cousins to the Bianco brothers from the Blue Collar Brothers series but you don’t need to read that series first (although it’s good and you should read it for kicks). The book made me smile many times and chuckle at the Mancini brother antics. I can’t wait for Carm’s book next!
Sexy Filthy Boss is the story of Enzo and Annie. Enzo seems like an alphahole absorbed in his work until you get to know him. Annie is a diligent worker with a plan for the future. But does that plan have room for Enzo Mancini and his dry cleaning?

Sexy Filthy Boss is the first book in Piper Rayne’s newest White Collar Brothers series. I think this series is off to a fantastic start.
I haven’t read many books by this writing duo, but the books I have read continue to be enjoyable and entertaining. I think this book is my favorite so far. I was immediately sucked into the story and the characters lives.
Sexy Filthy Boss is the start of this spin off series, but you don’t have to read any other books to start this series. You briefly see Enzo in the authors Blue Collar Brothers series, but reading that series first is not necessary.
This book is a standalone novel told in Dual POV. I will say that I believe this is going to be a series I will recommend readers read in order. Because in this book we get to know all three of the brothers featured in this series. Plus this book sets up the premise of the next book, which will be Carm’s book. I thought the pace and flow of this story was great. Nothing was rushed but there was no drag time either. I also liked that there wasn’t a whole lot of excess drama, just enough to keep the story interesting. I think this book would be the perfect read to take to the beach.
In this story we follow Enzo and Annie’s story. Enzo is a senior ad executive for a big company. He has made a name for himself with the company and is also known by other colleagues to be difficult to work for. His main focus has always been work and becoming partner. So what happens when Annie, an assistant at the company, has to take over for another assistant who has quit? Will his focus shift or will he keep going on this path?? Can Annie break down his walls and bring out the softer side of Enzo?? You’ll have to read this book to find out.
I really liked Annie’s character. I liked that she didn’t take whatever Enzo was willing to dish out. She is a little broken and had some issues getting over what her mother did to her in the past. Enzo was also quite lovable. Yes he is a little tough in the beginning, but when he opens up and show his softer side, you can’t help but fall in love with him.
I enjoyed getting to know the other brothers and Blanca, their sister. I look forward to reading the other books in this series. I am kind of hoping we get more of Enzo and Annie in the other books.
I would recommend this book to all romance readers. If you haven’t read anything by Piper Rayne I think this book is the perfect place to start.

Sexy Filthy Boss is the first book in the White Collar Brothers series. The Mancini brothers just happen to be the cousins of the Bianco brothers from the White Collar Brothers series.
Lorenzo “Enzo” Mancini is the middle of the Mancini brothers. He is a senior ad executive that is striving to become partner. He tends to have issues with keeping admins as they all tend to leave or get fired. He also isn’t a relationship guy. He’s so focused on becoming partner that the last thing he wants to spend time on is a relationship, much to his mother’s chagrin.
Annie Stewart works as an assistant at the same ad agency that Enzo works at. She isn’t his admin, but when his admin is fired at the most inopportune time, Annie is tapped to fill in even though she is scheduled to be out of the office that afternoon to move into her new apartment. With the dream of becoming an ad executive herself, she finds that working with Enzo might actually give her the leg up she needs. But the question is can she deal with him any better than anyone else?
I really loved both Enzo and Annie. They not only had amazing chemistry together, they were really interesting and good individuals. I give Piper Rayne a lot of credit for tackling the issues that they did in this book. I think the issues they brought light to unfortunately are still alive and well today, even though progress has been made. I was highly entertained by Enzo’s brothers and I can’t wait for the next book in this series. I can already tell it’s going to be a doozy from the set-up at the end of this one!
Enzo and Annie
A very enjoyable read with wonderful characters. Loved both of their families; supportive, fun, and interesting. This book is highly recommended. You will not put it down until the end and then you will grab the next one in the series.
This is a great story! You can’t help to fall in love with Enzo. Even if he is all growls. And Annie is the perfect match for him. She doesn’t let him get away with any of his b.s. And together they are unstoppable. This is a fun romp in the advertising world. I highly recommend it.
I listened to the audio version of this book. What a great decision! The story was great. The title doesn’t make it sound like there will be much to it, but the details in the plot really filled this steamy romance out. I loved both Annie and Enzo. Annie’s struggle to climb up the ladder and stand up for herself was very credible. Enzo’s transformation from the “pick up my laundry” type of guy to the guy he is at the end who is so disgusted by sexist behavior is great to see. There’s a great story here and the narrations by Lynn Norris and David Brenin only made it better.
This is the first book in the White Collar Brothers Series, a Romantic Comedy. This Series is interconnected with the Blue Collar Series, the Bianco Brothers. Lorenzo (Enzo) and Annie’s office romance is funny, sweet, and sexy. They share an undeniable and strong chemistry. I love Enzo! He is demanding, commanding, and handsome. Annie is smart, strong and determined. I like their banter. They are a perfect match. The supporting characters are great. I like the relationship between the Mancini Brothers. The family bonds are strong in this Series. Lynn Norris and David Brennan did an excellent job with the narration. Looking forward to listen to the next book in the Series, Dirty Flirty Enemy, Carm’s story.
This was my first read by Piper Rayne. I took advantage of a free download and this book has sat on my kindle for a bit. This book gave me life today – I laughed, swooned, fell in love and have mad respect for Enzo and Annie. What A Couple!!!
Enzo and Annie work at the same PR firm. After another one of Enzo’s assistants quit, Annie is assigned to him. They have chemistry from the start, but both remain professional. Enzo because he is certified bachelor and Annie because she wants to stand on her own before she gets into a relationship. This slow burn romance draws you in. The dynamic between them and their verbal exchanges are a writing masterpiece. Throw in their families and jackpot!
Brothers with no concept of personal space, a babysitting snafu, and an over eager Ma- so many laughs.
Enzo is a sexy, driven, dirty talking alpha. He meets his match in Annie. Their sexy times are off the charts and Hurricane Enzo has totally blown me away.
Laughed, cried but what a story& the characters were unbelievably sexy & the funniest in a family. Can’t wait to read the others.
Some unexpected twists and turns…keeps you hooked!
4.5.
I liked both Enzo and Annie’s characters. This was a pretty low angst romance which I enjoyed. I liked the dynamic between the brothers and between Annie and her sister. Editing was great.
Enzo is the sexy alpha male in the corner office who goes through assistants faster than free donuts in the breakroom. Annie is his assistant who has chosen to cover his last fire. Enzo has to hook the biggest client in the firm’s history to gain a partnership and a promotion for Annie. That involves late nights, trips out of town, and more than a few awkward moments filled with sexual tension. Annie prides herself on her willpower. She can total ignore his sexy grin, his rock-hard body, and his dreamy brown eyes. It turns out Enzo has many layers. If Annie does not stop peeling, she is going to lose everything, including her dignity.- I think Enzo had some assistants who were not overly bright or did not want to work. He was not a bad boss to Annie, but she was bright and did a good job. I enjoyed their conversations and their respect for each other. Enzo’s brothers were fun and made the story better. The epilogue was primarily a set up for the next book in the series. This is an entertaining romance
Love this series!
Loved this book. The characters were amazing, and it had all the feels… I read this book in one night.
Couldn’t get into it.
Here’s the thing: I had never read anything by this author, and I had low expectations simply because there are so many workplace romances that are really poorly written, and I just expected this to be another one of those. Thankfully, I was proven wrong! This story was well thought out, included themes outside of the will-they-won’t-they that a lot of romance novels are based on, and genuinely made the reader care about the story. Enzo wasn’t just some sexy business guy with commitment issues, but a male protagonist with layers and emotions and flaws (which, okay, let’s be honest: unfortunately, most of the male protagonists in romance novels today have less personality than a paper napkin. Sorry, not sorry). Annie wasn’t your stereotypical whiny/bratty female protagonist, but a strong, independent woman who had flaws and strengths, and just felt real.
Altogether, I loved it. Any author that can make me laugh out loud and make me get legitimately angry at a literary character gets my vote. I’m going to download more of her books right now!
Loved the characters and read the entire series.
I really enjoyed this book. The title doesn’t send the reader they right message.
