First Bite contains the first book in several of Steven Becker's series:


Wood’s Reef


"A riveting tale of intrigue and terrorism, Key West characters in their full glory! Fast paced and continually changing direction Mr Becker has me hooked on his skillful and adventurous tales from the Conch Republic!"

It's easy to become invisible in the Florida Keys. Mac Travis was doing his best to keep a low profile: diving, fishing, and enough salvage work to pay his bills. It's a good life until he discovers something while spearfishing that could change the pristine Keys forever.

Pirate


"A gripping tale of pirate adventure off the coast of 19th Century Florida!"

After decades at seas, pirate legend Jose' Gasparilla is prepared to retire. As he and his crew split their treasure, the promise of one final prize lures the ship back into action. Little do they know that the purported riches are nothing but a trap set by the fledgling U.S. Navy!

Backwater Bay


"I just couldn't put this book down. A great plot filled with action. Steven Becker brings each character to life, allowing the reader to become immersed in the plot."

When a body is found floating in the mangroves of Biscayne National Park, Special Agent Kurt Hunter has his first real case. He’s not looking for the spotlight or notoriety—he’s had both with disastrous results. But that seems unavoidable as the trail leads him to South Beach and his introduction to the culture there is anything but comfortable.
In the National Parks Service’s version of the witness protection program, Kurt quickly finds out that the pristine waters surrounding Miami are very different from the National Forest he transferred from. Follow Kurt through this new world as he unearths a crooked families greed to solve the case.

The three stories were well written great reading. The first two were great and kind of followed each other, however the third one was completely different it followed the area the keys of Florida but a whole different time area one of pirates great story to me it turned out to be the best, it had adventure mystery and even touched lightly on a budding romance, well worth the time spent on reading the story. Enjoy.

This is a pretty good series. That said, the first book is terrible and not worth reading. Since the books have nothing to do with each other, do yourself a favor and skip the first book (Wood's Reef).

I enjoyed the starter books of these 3 series,
the fast paced, many twists and turns with suspense filled plots leading us through the adventures in the Florida Keys, present day & past. Very likable captivating characters in each book, looking forward to continuing the ride Steven Becker is taking us on in these 3 stories.

This book is easy to get into, especially since I have been in the Tampa Bay area for over 50 years. Jose Gaspar is a celebrity of the scandalous, infamous kind, and Pirate is a very believable book, as well as a good read. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

I enjoyed the first story most. It gets five stars. The second story had too much "boating language" for me. However, I did still enjoy the investigation. It gets four stars. The third story was about some pirates running from the Navy a couple of centuries ago. Again, too much nautical language and sailing description for my interest. It gets 2.5 stars.

Each one of these books is the first book in three different series. And I want to say that I am loving these series and want to read all the rest of the books. Mr. Becker is a great storyteller and a really good writer. I cannot find any fault with anything that he did. These books are just awesome!!

Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2020

This ebook had 3 different books, each the beginning of a series. My biggest problem now is to decide on which of the exciting adventures to read first! The writer did a great job of making each story a totally different experience. I normally read other genres, but I am so happy with this author that I will only be reading him for some time, until I go thru them all!
