Resumen del Editor

An Indie Next Pick

Patrick O'Hara is called back to his guncle duties . . . This time for a big family wedding in Italy.

Patrick O’Hara is back. It’s been five years since his summer as his niece Maisie and nephew Grant’s caretaker after their mother’s passing. The kids are back in Connecticut with their dad, and Patrick has relocated to New York to remain close by and relaunch his dormant acting career. After the run of his second successful sit-com comes to a close, Patrick feels on top of the world . . . professionally. But some things have had to take a back seat. Looking down both barrels at fifty, Patrick is single again after breaking things off with Emory. But at least he has a family to lean on. Until that family needs to again lean on him.

When Patrick's brother, Greg, announces he’s getting remarried in Italy, Maisie and Grant are not thrilled. Patrick feels drawn to take the two back under his wing. As they travel through Europe on their way to the wedding, Patrick tries his best to help them understand love, much as he once helped them comprehend grief. But when they arrive in Italy, Patrick is overextended managing a groom with cold feet; his sister, Clara, flirting with guests left and right; a growing rivalry with the kids’ charming soon-to-be-launt (lesbian aunt), and two moody young teens trying to adjust to a new normal, all culminating in a disastrous rehearsal dinner.

Can Patrick save the day? Will teaching the kids about love help him repair his own love life? Can the change of scenery help Patrick come to terms with finally growing up?

Gracing the work with his signature blend of humor and heart, Steven Rowley charms with a beloved story about the complicated bonds of family, love, and what it takes to rediscover yourself, even at the ripe age of fifty.

"Maisie, Grant, and GUP, their Gay Uncle Patrick, return in Rowley’s funny, heartfelt sequel to The Guncle. . . . This follow-up has a humor and affection for the characters in a story with just the right amount of domestic tension but will still be a balm to readers."—Library Journal

"Rowley’s cunning sequel is as much travelogue as uplifting love story, with happy endings all around."—Booklist

"The wise-cracking and wisdom-dropping protagonist of The Guncle returns for more adventures in Rowley’s diverting sequel . . . The author’s fans will gobble this up."—Publishers Weekly

A great read for summer, bookclubs, and breaking a slump

Rowley is an auto-buy author for me and the moment I heard he would be writing a sequel to The Guncle I started counting the days. This book is like a good vacation: adventure, romance, delicious food, beautiful views, and a little bit of melancholic homesickness.

I loved getting to see growth from each of the characters and getting to meet some amazing new ones like the Launt!

Once again, Rowley knocks the narration out of the park, even returning a little bit of Grant’s lisp that I loved from book one. I highly recommend this book for any one of any age. It’s a great read for summer, bookclubs, and breaking a slump!

Loved this Book!

This follow up did not disappoint. It was nice to see how the family was able to move on. Highly recommend both books.

As good as the first!

Everybody needs a guncle! I absolutely adore Patrick, as well as the rest of the characters, and it was so good to visit with them again. I’m so glad the author chose to narrate, I can’t imagine anyone who could have done it better. Definitely a must read!

Wonderful to catch up with Patrick and his family

I loved The Guncle and was thrilled when the sequel was announced. It did not disappoint. As always, Steven Rowley is a fabulous storyteller/narrator. I've fallen in love with these characters and will revisit them from time to time. I hope Mr Rowley considers a third installment! A movie version of The Guncle was announced, although there have been no updates online about it since 2022. I would go to the theater for The Guncle.

Ooh so good..

What a great sequel to Guncle. So funny and poignant all at the same time. And funny - sooo funny!

I hope there’s more of Patrick and gang in the future. I’ve enjoyed these books so much!

Loved it just as much as the first!

I was really hoping this would be a good continuation of the story, and it did not disappoint. Had the right amount of humor, sarcasm, and tug at your heart string moments to keep you wanting to listen to the story.

Such a fun read.

A wild and wonderful romp through Europe, followed by an over the top wedding celebration.
