In his darkest hour, hope leads him to glory.

Focus and determination are all that Logan Belanger lives by. Brought up single-handedly by his mother, he moves to Columbus, Ohio, to begin the next phase of his life as a competitive swimmer with Ohio State University. All that changes when he meets Bree, a troubled young woman who hides a dark secret that has the potential to destroy his faith in love.

New friendships are forged and bonds created that send his life into a spiral. Not being able to handle the pressures of college life, Logan soon finds himself walking down the dark and lonely path to self-destruction—losing those he loves along the way.

Can Logan break the cycle or will his actions be his cross to bear?

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!!! JUST WOW!!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2016
I love Logan and Bree's relationship and how it grows.
Ethan I could hit from the first time I met him, not the first chapter(flashback) part. He loves himself and thinks everyone else should too. Tommy is a wimp, he just does what Ethan wants and says. He needs to grow a pair and stand up for what is right. This comes out at times right through the book but especially with the transvestite.
Drake I loved from the beginning.
I love Jet, she knows what she is and what she wants and doesn't care what anyone thinks about her. I feel her and Drake would have become really good friends, bonding talking about their lovely parents, not. Lol.
This book made me laugh, giggle, gasp, and cry. Happy cry, sad cry, and lots of angry cry.

Title: A Cross To Bear
Author: Julieanne Lynch

4 unforgettable stars

I came into A Cross To Bear without one single idea of what I was getting into - maybe I expected a story about a college guy who meets a girl and tried to balance school, swimming and a relationship. The last thing I expected however was a novel that touched all the subjects you'd never think would be brought up in one single novel: depression, manipulation, doubt, love and so many others that I had to wonder just who Julieanne Lynch managed it. It's not the type of novel that I'll usually gravitate towards, mostly because the subjects discussed hit much too close to home, but I'm so very happy that I took the chance and did.

3 cuddle worthy dreams stars

The problem with describing the 'hotness' factor of this book is that I didn't necessarily find it as important as the whole of the novel - in truth, I didn't pay much attention to it and concentrated mostly on the personalities and habits of the characters. Absolutely I found the relationship between Logan and Bree intriguing, but most of all, the interaction between each different character is what drew me in. Julieanne Lynch's A Cross To Bear was a different type of read that I don't regret picking up and I'd be curious to compare it to her other releases.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love, Love, Love this book!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2017
I'd give this story 10 stars if it was an option! A Cross To Bear will bring out every emotion possible. By the end of the book my heart was ripped out, tears in my eyes & then finished with happiness. I have loved every book that I have read by Julieanne Lynch and I have yet to be disappointed in her work. There is a little bit of darkness in this book, but it is also filled with love and happiness. I can't tell you just how much I enjoyed reading this one! Great work Julieanne, I can't wait to read more of your work!!!!

I received a copy of this as a gift with no requirement to review.

I went into this book expecting to feel every emotion and I was not disappointed. This book was dark in some places and sad in others but it is an incredible story. I absolutely loved both Logan and Bree, Ethan on the other hand? Not so much. I loved how the book starts at the end and then moves to the beginning before taking me back to the end. I haven’t read a book like that before and it was a refreshing change. Another great book from Julieanne.
