One is grumpy. One is sunshine. There is only one bed. Kiskeya Burgos left the tropical beaches of the Dominican Republic with a lot to prove. As a pastry chef on the come up, when she arrives in Scotland, she has one goal in mind: win the Holiday Baking Challenge. Winning is her opportunity to prove to her family, her former boss, and most importantly herself, she can make it in the culinary world. Kiskeya will stop at nothing to win, that is, if she can keep her eyes on the prize and off her infuriating teammate's perfect lips. Sully Morales, home cooking hustler, and self-proclaimed baking brujita lands in Scotland on a quest to find her purpose after spending years as her family's caregiver. But now, with her home life back on track, it's time for Sully to get reacquainted with her greatest love, baking. Winning the Holiday Baking Challenge is a no brainer if she can convince her grumpy AF baking partner that they make a great team both in and out of the kitchen before an unexpected betrayal ends their chance to attain culinary competition glory.

Suffers a bit from the novella problem - insta-love, not quite enough characterization. Still a lot of fun and I need to read more from her!!
actual rating: 4/5 stars
a cute lil sapphic holiday romance
‘Mangos and Mistletoe' fell short for me, mainly due to the character Kisekiya. Her portrayal made it challenging to connect with the story, she was very unlikeable. Her presence overshadowed the holiday charm, leaving the romance unconvincing and unsatisfying.
