The Rising Storm series is a serialized romance project structured like a television show. Set in the fictional small town of Storm, Texas, the story follows the town’s residents through romantic entanglements, family secrets, and dramatic revelations. The series ran for two seasons between 2015 and 2016, with nineteen total episodes.
The serialized format means each episode is written by a different romance author while following a shared storyline and cast of characters. This collaborative approach is unusual in romance publishing and gives each episode a slightly different voice while maintaining the overall narrative. Lexi Blake is among the authors who contributed to the project.
The Storm, Texas setting gives the series a Southern small-town atmosphere. The episodic format keeps each entry short and fast-paced, making the series easy to consume in quick reading sessions. With nineteen episodes across two seasons, the full story offers a substantial amount of interconnected romance.
