Of all the characters that glorious fill the pages of April Alisa Marquette’s Cohort Trilogy, Beau DeVeaux has always been my favorite. Granted, he’s the only male amongst a bevy of women, but he has something to him that makes his very friendship and presence so valuable and endearing that I could help love him from the start.

Beau is one of those believable human beings that has suffered through the trials and tribulations of a life that started out terribly from the onset. Unloved by his drug addicted mother, molested by a member of society that people trust with their children, Beau is on a downward spiral of loneliness and an inward pain that rips at his soul.

When Beau’s world is surrounded by the stigma of foster homes, an aunt searches for him and brings him into a world that is filled with an emotion he’s never experienced…unconditional love.

Ms. Marquette’s Iniquities is a beautiful journey into Beau’s life. I adored how he reflected back on moments in his life, and the situations that molded and changed him. He’s the dearest of friends that holds the people in his life close to his heart and, as each of those people leave, they take a piece of his precious heart with them, but they are never forgotten.

Above all, he just has so much love to give…

Moving and pulling at the heartstrings, just as the other novels in this trilogy did, the reader journeys through Beau’s life from a front seat. As a fan of Ms. Marquette and Beau, I found Iniquities to be a stunning novel that truly spotlights Ms. Marquette's skill, and filled with a superb Happy Ending for the most magical of the Cohorts.
