Love how every story had a "it's only the beginning" kind of end. And the whole 1940s vibe was noir-like, with the right amount of everything!

What the actual fuck! Are you kidding me? I finished the 1st short story way too fast and I wanted more!! I wanted more of all the stories. Truly enjoyed this book. Vengefully Yours is 6 short stories packed into one book! Buckle up and get ready to jump into them!
Angel of La Seine:
This story is based in 1937 Los Angeles when Hero and his partner take on a job from Charles Marquis. Hero did a two year sentence and moved to Los Angeles from Chicago to start a new life. Little does Hero know that Marquis is going to ask him for a favor the moment he’s distracted by a beautiful goddess. When it ended, all I wanted was for this story to continue! My head is spinning of all the possible ways this story could play out.
In the dead of the night:
Rye is following Larissa as she’s walking alone back to the townhome he provided her. He’s been keeping a watchful eye over her for 6 years making sure she was protected. When Larissa sees Rye, she says that she knows him. She recognizes him but doesn’t know exactly who he is or why he was following her. They shared a passionate kiss and she asked how did he know her name. Again, I wish this story could have continued! I think they would be great together.
Behind the 8 ball:
Former navy seal Mac, was out having a fun time playing pool when Aurelie, the senator’s daughter, found him. She needs his help but will he go back down that road?
He met her 4 years ago when she walked into his auto shop searching for help. Which resulted in them sharing dinner at the beach. Even though she was the senator’s daughter she did things like continue to eat dinners on the beach with him, stop by the shop and spent the night at his place.
Stark homecoming:
Stellan, an assassin, met a girl, Verity, 10 years ago and she hasn’t left his mind since. He talks about her in his therapy sessions. When he’s on a mission, he’s distracted because he knows that she’s there. He was sent to her school for a mission and ended up getting close to her instead. Falling for her.
The nightmare: United Kingdom
Maxen used to be a Marine. He’s on a mission with Aveline, his lover, to track down a murderer. She remembers the place they were at being where her dad has took her before.
A fool to hold you
In 1948 Los Angeles, Joe is a detective who crashes a party and says he’s with Anne to get in. Little does Anne know by accepting his entry to the party that he would have some upsetting news for her.
She was the daughter of a crime boss but ended up falling in love with a detective while she was suppose to be married off to someone else.
Thank you to NetGalley for the EARC! As always, my review is my opinion and thoughts.

Really enjoyed this one. Such an effortless read with characters that really leapt off the page for me. Each short story was its own world that I visited for a short while (some shorter than others),. And I was sad each time I said goodbye. I hope the author will consider expanding some of these.
