**H**enry "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*.

A sweet and funny little story about Monty and Percy's first time. A sex positive story without being graphic and all about loving consent and the emotional work to be in a relationship. Can't have enough good examples of of that for teens, especially queer ones. Wouldn't really make sense without having read at least Gentleman's Guide.
This was a good short, fun, hilarious novella. It doesn't add anything to the story but it was still enjoyable hence my 3 star rating.
The author's attempt to write a m/m sex scene without actually writing any sex, but I love these characters.
