1001 Dark Nights Presents Rising Storm, Created by Bestselling Authors J. Kenner and Dee Davis
by Robert Diamond - Sep 12, 2015
Welcome to Storm, Texas, where passion runs hot, desire runs deep, and secrets have the power to destroy...
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.
Lots of 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. In season 2, Christopher Rice will join the line-up.
A serial soap opera containing eight episodes in season one, the season premiere of Rising Storm, Tempest Rising, debuts September 24th with each subsequent episode releasing consecutively this fall.
So get ready. The storm is coming.
Liz Berry and MJ Rose from 1001 Dark Nights and J. Kenner and Dee Davis, as well as the other participating authors. are available for interviews, guest posts, and more. All interview and media requests can be directed to KP Simmon of InkSlinger PR at kpsimmon@gmail.com or by phone at 480-365-9419.
