About this listen
As the New York Times bestselling author of the Troubleshooters series and a “superstar of romantic suspense” (USA Today), Suzanne Brockmann has an acclaimed history of taking listeners’ breath away with her novels of hot passion and high adventure. Now she takes her talent for sexy, action-packed storytelling in a thrilling new direction: forward - into a future, both fantastic and frightening, that only the brilliant Brockmann could envision.
Dishonorably discharged, former Navy SEAL Shane Laughlin is down to his last ten bucks when he finally finds work as a test subject at the Obermeyer Institute, a little-known and believed-to-be-fringe scientific research facility. When he enters the OI compound, he is plunged into a strange world where seemingly mild-mannered scientists - including women half his size - can kick his highly skilled ass.
Shane soon discovers that there are certain individuals who possess the unique ability to access untapped regions of the brain with extraordinary results - including telekinesis, super strength, and reversal of the aging process. Known as “Greater-Thans,” this rare breed is recruited by OI, where they are rigorously trained using ancient techniques to cultivate their powers and wield them responsibly.
But in the depths of America’s second Great Depression, where the divide between the haves and the have-nots has grown even wider, those who are rich - and reckless - enough have a quick, seductive alternative: Destiny, a highly addictive designer drug that can make anyone a Greater-Than, with the power of eternal youth. The sinister cartel known as The Organization has begun mass-producing Destiny, and the demand is epidemic. But few realize the drug’s true danger, and fewer still know the dirty secret of Destiny’s crucial ingredient.
Michelle “Mac” Mackenzie knows the ugly truth. And as one of the Obermeyer Institute’s crack team of operatives, she’s determined to end the scourge of Destiny. But her kick-ass attitude gets knocked for a loop when she finds that one of the new test subjects is none other than Shane, the same smoldering stranger who just rocked her world in a one-night stand. Although Shane isn’t a Greater-Than like Mac, as an ex-SEAL, he’s got talents of his own. But Mac’s got powerful reasons to keep her distance from him - and reasons that are just as strong to want him close. She’s used to risking her life, but now, in the midst of the ultimate war on drugs, she must face sacrificing her heart.

Nor did she expect that a tall stranger in a cowboy hat would turn the movie — and her world — completely upside down.

Navy SEAL Ian Dunn went rogue in a big way when he turned his talents to a lawless life of jewel heists and con jobs - or so the world has been led to believe. In reality, the former Special Ops warrior is still fighting for good, leading a small band of freelance covert operatives who take care of high-stakes business in highly unofficial ways. That makes Ian the hands-down choice when the US government must breach a heavily guarded embassy and rescue a pair of children kidnapped by their own father, a sinister foreign national willing to turn his kids into casualties.

Beatrice Poole may be a vicar's daughter, but that doesn't mean she's a stranger to the darker passions. Indeed, she knows enough about gothic terrors to have carved out a highly successful career penning "horrid novels." But now the talented authoress finds herself in the midst of an ominous adventure that rivals anything she's ever written.Her beloved Uncle Reggie is dead, Beatrice suspects that he was murdered - all because of his keen interest in a fabled treasure that may not even exist. Rumors abound that the Forbidden Rings of Aphrodite, said to give their possessor the most unnatural powers, have surfaced in London. Yet Beatrice needs more than rumors to uncover the truth. That's why she's braved the wilds of Devon to seek out a leading authority on antiquities and ancient legends: The famously eccentric, unquestionably reclusive, possibly dangerous Earl of Monkcrest, a man believed to dabble in the supernatural.But bearding the Mad Monk of Monkcrest in his den and dangling the possibility of uncovering a fabulous artifact before him may be the biggest mistake of Beatrice's life. For suddenly, she finds herself joined in an uneasy alliance with a man who is every bit as fascinating as one of the heroes in her novels.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

A new world begins for me, yay!
I was looking for something different to read and this was the perfect story! Loved the paranormal touch (which I believe is very plausible) and that the story is set in the future as well. I am a big fan of dystopian future worlds and I'm always looking for the next good story to listen to. Of course the love stories were the cherry on top!

Amazing
Where does Born to Darkness rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Born to Darkness ranks in the Top 10% of all of the Books I have read or listen to.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Elliot - Honest, smart, caring, and a true person. Not imposing or afraid to take a risk.
Which character – as performed by Melanie Ewbank and Patrick Lawlor – was your favorite?
Mac was my favorite character. Mac really cared about the young girls in trouble, and would risk her life for them and her friends.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Several scenes were great. The one where Elliot and Steven discovered the attraction and need for each other was special.
Any additional comments?
Great book. I can't wait for the next book in this series. I will be waiting.

Good characters, awful detailed crimes
Where does Born to Darkness rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The story is hard to listen to due to rape, torture and murder of little girls - usually enjoy Suzanne Brockmann books but the villians were just too awful.
Would you be willing to try another book from Suzanne Brockmann? Why or why not?
I would buy another book but not in this series (it seems it will be a series as questions were left unanswered)
What does Melanie Ewbank and Patrick Lawlor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I like these 2 narrators and have enjoyed them narrating previous SB books.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I kept taking my headphones off to let the story continue without me listening - never want to hear little girls tortured and screaming.
Any additional comments?
Sexy characters and would have enjoyed this much more without all the details of the crimes being committed.

Incredible story!
What did you like about this audiobook?
The story, plot and character development was well done. Shane and Mac are perfect together and Mac is a good ole fashion hero living in modern times.
How has the book increased your interest in the subject matter?
I am always looking for new and different versions of scifi/fantasy love stories that maintain a good story despite the "love". Born to Darkness did this better than most!

Love & Violence & Save the World!
What did you love best about Born to Darkness?
Truthfully, I liked the Elliot Zerkowski & Stephen Diaz romance. Their relationship is so genuine and caring. They were my favorite couple!
What did you like best about this story?
I'm grateful Suzanne Brockmann has another series!!! I have read or listened to every book she has ever written.
Which character – as performed by Melanie Ewbank and Patrick Lawlor – was your favorite?
Futuristic concepts are presented with such realism. Sometimes I forget that we can't just scan ourselves. She uses language the listener can easily understand.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Melanie Ewbanks and Patrick Lawlor are fabulous together! I'll listen to anything Lawlor narrates!

FANTASTIC :)
couldn't get enough! Suzanne Brockman is hilarious! I do wish one person would have been for each voice, like Mr. Lawlor for Shane and Ms. Eubank for Mac. Still, amazing!

Could not get enough
Where does Born to Darkness rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I would say this is a book I will listen too again and again. I am sure I missed things with so many twists and turns.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Shane! he did not give up no matter what. Mac is a tough women to love she is a bit like a hedgehog, prickle until you can get her to open up and feel the soft underbelly.

I WANT MORE
I loved all the characters in the book. Diaz and Mac as partners completely balanced each other out. Diaz was intense and focused. Mac was a smart ass and worked in controlled chaos. Their leader Bach was always the embodiment of control and even temperament. All changes when one little girl needs rescued and they discover their new strengths which comes from ...
I really enjoyed the interaction of the team with the addition or Anna and Shane along with Bennett. The book is so descriptive and makes it easy for you to have a complete vision of what is occurring. You can feel all the emotions that Mac goes through and how each character has so much to gain from their new alliances. I don't think I would ever had enough of Shane and would be using every form of persuasion that Mac has at her disposal in the pursuit of MORE!
I hope that the next book focuses on Bach. I love his character and I think I understand what happened in the end ... So excited for more! Great book and excellent narration! Melanie brought Mac to life and made you feel every emotion with such intensity. Patrick was the perfect navy seal and then was able to switch the compassionate Bach making both characters completely believe able. highly recommend!
