Release Day Blitz Review
Rising Storm
(Episode 1: Tempest Rising)
by

J. Kenner

Release Date: September 24, 2015

Welcome to Storm, Texas, where passion runs hot, desire runs deep,
*and secrets have the power to destroy...So get ready. The storm is coming.***

Nestled among rolling hills and painted with vibrant wildflowers, the bucolic town of Storm, Texas, seems like nothing short of perfection. But there are secrets beneath the facade. Dark secrets. Powerful secrets. The kind that can destroy lives and tear families apart. The kind that can cut through a town like a tempest, leaving jealousy and destruction in its wake, along with shattered hopes and broken dreams. All it takes is one little thing to shatter that polish. Reading like an on-going drama in the tradition of classic day and night-time soap operas like Dallas, Dynasty, and All My Children, Rising Storm is full of scandal, deceit, romance, passion, and secrets. With 1001 Dark Nights as the “producer,” Julie Kenner and Dee Davis use a television model with each week building on the last to create a storyline that fulfills the promise of a drama-filled soap opera. Joining Kenner and Davis in the “writer’s room” is an incredible group of New York Times bestselling authors such as Lexi Blake, Elisabeth Naughton, Jennifer Probst, Larissa Ione, Rebecca Zanetti and Lisa Mondello who have brought their vision of Storm to life. A serial soap opera containing eight episodes in season one, the season premiere of Rising Storm, TEMPEST RISING, debuts September 24^th with each subsequent episode releasing consecutively this fall.

~ Review ~

A quick engaging read which leads you to a small town in Texas full of loss, lies, deceit and secrets. You will get tangled in the web and be looking for more. Appearances are everything in this small town but what everyone is hiding behind their masks is about to start unraveling.

I loved the quick pace of the book. Yes it is a continuing saga and believe me I cannot wait to see where it goes. Definitely has the feel of a "soap opera" with all of the characters family some how intertwined with one another. Grab your copy today and see if you can weather the Storm.

“After reading Tempest Rising by Julie Kenner I can honestly say it is everything I loved about those shows from the 80's and more; heart-stopping, twisted, engrossing, captivating, epic all describe this very first episode of Rising Storm. Even better I FELT like I was watching a television mini-series while reading it. Each time the "scene" changed, I held my breath wondering who was up next.”
