BURBANK, CALIFORNIA, March 19, 2025 —
Dark Myth Publications is thrilled to announce the paperback release of Penance by acclaimed author Stephanie J. Bardy. Originally published in hardcover on July 11, 2023, this haunting and emotionally charged supernatural novel is now available in an accessible and collectible paperback edition.
Penance delivers a dark and visceral tale of trauma, transformation, and redemption through the story of Reese, a woman forged into something divine and deadly after centuries of torment at the hands of a cruel vampire elder. Now on a path of healing with her soulmate Marlon, a former enforcer turned protector, Reese seeks solace in New Orleans. But the past refuses to stay buried.
When Marlon is kidnapped and his soul imprisoned by the very monster who once enslaved them both, Reese must confront not only Adrian's growing power but also her own inner darkness. With the help of witches, mystics, and two bold humans, Reese faces an epic battle between divine justice and personal vengeance. In a fiery, phoenix-like rebirth, she reclaims her strength and destiny–though not without great sacrifice.
