Mangos and Mistletoe felt more like enemies to lovers rather than just grumpy/sunshine paring just based off of the vibes Kiskeya's character was giving off. The weight of the importance of this international baking competition was IMMENSE for her character and when readers find out just how much, they begin to realize why she acts the way that she does. Not only towards Sully but the other contestants as well.
Sully and Kiskeya's attraction for each other is clear from the moment they meet. And both are really talented at creating knock-out baked treats. I actually wished this book had a recipe or two to try out.
Readers will find this sapphic holiday book offers flirty banter, spicy scenes and the origins of a heartfelt love-story.
