Reviewed by Christian Sia for Readers' Favorite

KC Decker's 1462 South Broadway is book one in the Jessie Hayes series, a sizzling contemporary romance with a huge potential to entertain fans of the genre. In a deliciously crafted story, the reader is introduced to an exotic world of eroticism and a sexually famished Jessie Hayes in the quest for sexual pleasures. She is the kind of woman who could have been fulfilled, but she is not. She has a keen sense of adventure, surrounded by great friends, plus she has a good job, but then one thing doesn’t seem to work for her — men. And this is until she discovers 1462 South Broadway.

Apart from Fifty Shades of Grey — which wasn’t particularly interesting to me — I have hardly read anything in this genre, but I was able to complete this book in two sittings, and I mean complete it as in completely absorbed in it. KC Decker is a skilled writer who creates very compelling characters, exploring the most powerful and hidden emotions in them. Jessie Hayes may seem very normal from the outside, but deep inside her is a crazy longing, a fire that burns but that doesn’t consume. There is something powerfully weak about her and readers will connect with her emotions, her longing, and her sense of sensual adventure very easily. The plot is well-imagined and the author did a tremendous job to clear the work of any clichés that are often associated with this genre. The writing itself is sexy, crisp and well-polished. If the characters won’t seduce you, the author’s powerful prose will. It is steamy and exhilaratingly entertaining, the kind of story that will drive a reader over the edge.

It was amazing! So well written! Such a great set of characters. I turned the last page and was lost with no words....must write another! Team Silas! Or maybe team Salinger! Maybe both! So sexy, sensual, steamy and do I sense a bit of a long-term love story? Hmmm? Just perfect and all the while a fantasy that could be a reality, one that many lust for and seek out! Relatable? I think so! Dream big ladies! Dream real big!

Passionate and erotic, I couldn't put this masterpiece down! I loved it, the twist at the end an added bonus. Please tell me this is the beginning of a series from this talented author!

I read A LOT. But not usually this genre. I tried reading 50 shades when it was all the rage, but could only make it halfway through due to the uninspired characters and poor writing. A friend referred this book and I LOVED it. Fast read, couldn't put it down. Fun and interesting characters and loads of steamy sex. Ordered the next book immediately and now hoping for a third!!!

I don't usually read books in this genre, but it came so highly recommended. I absolutely loved it. It's definitely worth the read even if the life style does not interest you. I can't wait to read the next book!

Goodreads Review

I read 50 shades...was not terribly impressed. This was SO much better! There was an actual plot with real feeling characters. It was erotic but that was NOT the entire basis of the story. Finished it very quickly and read book two in record time as well. The dynamics in the relationships in the story are great!!! I highly recommend this series especially if you liked 50 shades.

Finally! Well written, smart, hot erotica!

Finally, an erotic novel that doesn't suck! I thought my lady bits were broken until I read this book. The female lead is strong, yet vulnerable, and delicious in nearly every way. Even if you aren't into BDSM erotica, I think this book will still surprise you with romantic twists, well developed characters and smart, smokin' hot sex scenes (not all of which involve BDSM). If you are are into BDSM erotica, you will find this book is well researched, innovative and an overall fun read. I want to put on a strand of pearls and take KC Decker out for a dirty martini! Your lover will too. Well done, KC Decker!

Brilliant!
Move over 50 Shades...KC brings life and depth to this hot subculture. Vivid descriptions and real, vulnerable characters drew me in. I could feel and see through Jessie. Incredibly descriptive, erotic, entertaining and enlightening. I couldn't put it down. Recommending this to all of my friends. I've already purchased the next book, I'll force myself to sleep before I start reading it.

A must read!
Love, love, loved this book. Lately I have been strugling to find characters/ relationships I can get into. KC finally broke through with her gift of character development. I loved the main character Jessie, her roommate, roommate's SO, Silas and pretty much everyone else that showed up in the book. I want to hangout with them all.

For the past year or so, I have been more into plain romance and not DBSM, I just found the DBSM books to be too similar to each other, which was a little boring after a while. KC has definately broken the mold. I found this book to be really refreshing and not so dark. A lighthearted, funny DBSM book.

She had me hooked from the very first paragraph. I was so bummed every time I had to put the book down (which only happened twice). I cannot wait until next weekend so I can read the next one.

It's all in the DETAILS!!!
So many things about this book I loved! The storyline is one to which many single women can relate-bored with vanilla men, looking for someone to knock you socks (and panties) off...
The non-specific location also adds to the relatability of the story, but the descriptive writing is what blew me away. Whether KC Decker is writing about nipples or a conch shell, I feel it! Literal tingles and throbs. I am a fan of Erotica, and ice got a new favorite author.
I'll never look at pearls, sushi, Steampunk clothing, or process a Scottish accent the same again.
Read this book!!

Great book.

Wow, this book definitely delivers in every aspect!. Not only is the storyline intriguing, but KC Decker obviously knows a thing or two about the mysterious and seductive world of BDSM. She creates a very kick-ass central heroine, a captivating storyline and intense sexual chemistry. Unlike many books in this genre, she also takes the time to build up tantalizing foreplay and very believable climaxes. If you're looking to have your own inner fires burned along with a great story you won't be disappointed!
