Sweet Decay: Beauty That Never Dies (The ROT Gospel A Quartet)

Harper Haley wakes in Blackridge Asylum already dead—
and whatever survived inside her is hungry.

Blackridge is not a hospital. It is a cult disguised as care. A place where rot is worshipped, beauty is obedience, and healing means surrendering your body to something that wants to grow inside you.

Marked by a hunger that isn’t hers, Harper fights to keep her mind as the mold—praised as salvation—begins to change her from the inside out. Therapy is ritual. The staff are zealots. The patients are offerings. Resistance is punished.

She isn’t alone. Ivy can shape reality through art. Knox hides brutal wounds beneath his strength. Serena, a nurse untouched by the infection, knows too much. And Dr. Elias Thorne—dangerous, magnetic, and watching Harper far too closely—may be the most dangerous believer of all.

As Blackridge prepares for its final ascension, Harper faces a choice:
submit and be remade, or tear the system apart from the inside.

A fever dream of cult horror, body transformation, forbidden desire, and reclaimed power, Sweet Decay asks one question:

Will you obey—or will you rot?
