A note for parents

This is a lighthearted romantic novella centered on two male characters navigating their first serious relationship. The story emphasizes emotional connection, personal growth, and self-worth rather than physical intimacy, though sexual references and romantic tension are present. It's best suited for mid-to-older teen readers who enjoy character-driven romance and LGBTQ+ representation, and who are comfortable with themes of vulnerability and self-doubt in relationships.

From the publisher

Henry "Monty" Montague has escaped the clutches of brutish thieves and royal scoundrels, has won the heart of handsome Percy--the boy he adores--and has quite possibly become a decent person along the way. Although Monty is braver and more evolved than when he first embarked on his Grand Tour, now that he and Percy... Henry "Monty" Montague has escaped the clutches of brutish thieves and royal scoundrels, has won the heart of handsome Percy--the boy he adores--and has quite possibly become a decent person along the way. Although Monty is braver and more evolved than when he first embarked on his Grand Tour, now that he and Percy are temporarily marooned on the beautiful island of Santorini, he's suddenly very anxious about taking the next step in their relationship. Monty has had his fair share of dalliances, but never a serious romance with someone as remarkable with his new beau. The pressure to fully commit is throwing a usually confident Monty off-balance, especially since he has a history of believing he's not worthy of anything but casual affairs. And when several clumsy attempts to seduce Percy go completely awry, Monty fears that his dream of a future with Percy is still nothing but a foolish fantasy. Now available in print, Mackenzi Lee's charming novella follows Monty as he realizes that there is something more nerve-racking than being closed across Europe: being with the person you love. This description comes from the publisher. The Gentleman's Guide to Getting Lucky comes between the first and second books of the Montague Siblings series, the first of which is The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue.
