About this listen

In this funny and frothy novella that picks up where the New York Times best-selling The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue leaves off, freshly minted couple Monty and Percy fumble through their first time together.

Monty’s epic grand tour may be over, but now that he and Percy are finally a couple, he realizes there is something more nerve-wracking than being chased across Europe: getting together with the person you love.

Will the romantic allure of Santorini make his first time with Percy magical, or will all the anticipation and build-up completely spoil the mood?

Critic reviews

"Anyone who loved Percy and Monty in The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue will want to hear this sweet, brief novella sequel. Christian Coulson returns to narrate as Percy, Monty, Felicity, and their friends enjoy an extended idyll on Santorini, recovering from their adventures and thinking about what comes next. Coulson slips easily back into the characterizations - Felicity is smart and sharp-tongued, Monty teeters between smug charm and self-deprecation, and Percy remains patient and empathetic....It's a funny and tender interlude for listeners who want to spend more time with these characters." (AudioFile Magazine)

Editor's Pick

This Gentleman’s Guide to Repeat Listening
"When I first started working at Audible, The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue was the very first story that a colleague recommend. (Big shout out to editor Katie for that one!) In addition to being one of my favorite love stories, it also happens to feature one of my favorite performances. Christian Coulson (a.k.a. a young Tom Riddle from your other favorite series) swept me off my feet with his portrayal of a young, but still very rakish, Lord Monty and his best-friend-turned-lover, Percy. While we manage to catch a glimpse of their life together in Felicity’s story, The Lady’s Guide to Petticoats and Piracy, that cameo still left me wanting more from this dynamic duo. And it’s finally here! I can already tell that this will be an adventure I’ll be listening to over and over again."

So much love for Monty and Percy!

I would seriously listen to anything having to do with Monty and Percy, the length of the story would make no difference, I love them that much! This was short but oh so sweet! It left me wanting more, more, more- I'm pretty sure I'd think that no matter what. They are just the cutest boys and I adore them! This story had me laughing out loud, but then getting all up in my feels a minute later. Monty was so unsure of himself, it was adorable and frustrating all at once.
Christian Coulson narration is perfection. I'm pretty sure I said that when I reviewed TGGtV&V, but it's true. He does such a fantastic job bringing Monty, and Percy, and all the other characters, to life. It's such a wonderful experience listening to his performance.

so sweet

These two are a beautiful disaster and this is a great little addition to their story. I appreciate that it's not all perfect, they aren't magically perfect together and that the story does a great job showing relationships take work and communication and understanding.

Cute, but short

I have to be honest, I somehow missed this was a novella before I bought it... Oops
It is a cute story, and a fun 2 hour listen... But is it $14 worth of cute? Not sure it's worth that much over another regular length novel.

Fabulous! The Narrator is Fantastic

So incredibly cute. If you loved The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue (especially if you enjoyed the audio version performed by the wonderful Christian Coulson) then you'll want to listen to this one.

Fun

A fun edition to the series. You're going to be screeching with laughter by the end. It was sweet. Percy is boyfriend goals. There's not much to this story. It's not complicated.

My favorite line was, "where you start isn't where you have to end". Which is about Monty trying to be a better person.

I enjoyed diving back into the world of these characters. I wish the book had been longer.

I so wanted more

Coulson is unmatched at this. Truly made this and the first book such a wonderful listen. I loved the first book. This one was a little too short for my liking. Leaves too much to be desired. I hope there'll be another installment.

These boys

I adore them so very much but the biggest thing I have to say about this beautiful short is Henry Montague and Percy Newton are utter idiots, Felicity is so strong for dealing with them 24/7 😂 do read this though it’s amazing

More, please!

This was a great little story to give us a bit more closure on Monty & Percy’s relationship from Book 1. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because I feel like it could’ve been just a bit longer, in order to flesh out the story more. (And especially for the price.) I knew going in that it was a novella, and only 2 hrs, which is fine—I’ll gladly take whatever I’m given of these characters and be grateful. But I do feel like we just weren’t given any actual resolutions to the plot, or the issues brought up here in this story. That being said, though, what we got was super cute and as always Christian Coulson did an excellent job on the narration! This series was the first time I’d listened to anything read by him, and I will now definitely be looking for his other work. He truly does an amazing job embodying the characters and garnering the right emotions. His performance alone is a 10/10!

Beautifully Written and Performed, BUT...

Beautifully Written and Performed, BUT... NO ONE GETS LUCKY!!! Ugh. Expected so much more than this, such as a sex scene or two!! Very disappointing, left me totally... unsatisfied.
