Add this to Custom CSS:

.sqs-block-summary-v2 .summary-excerpt p {
  display: -webkit-box;
  -webkit-line-clamp: 5;
  -webkit-box-orient: vertical;  
  overflow: hidden;
}

Change the 5 to any value you want for the number of lines.

Thanks! That works for the summary blocks. How do I do this for the blog landing page too? See screenshot.

Use a code like this

.blog-excerpt-wrapper {
    display: -webkit-box;
    -webkit-line-clamp: 3;
    -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
    overflow: hidden;
}
