The singer has teamed with well-known author James Patterson to write the book “Run, Rose, Run,” due out March 7, 2022. And not only that, Dolly will also release an album of original songs inspired by the book to coincide with the novel’s release. “I cannot be more excited about the release of my very first novel ‘Run, Rose, Run’ with the great James Patterson. I also have a new album to go along with the book," she tells “People.” "I hope you enjoy the book and the songs as much as we've enjoyed putting it all together!" As for the book it follows a young woman who heads to Nashville to become a star, but has a “brutal secret she has done everything to hide.” "But the past she has fled is reaching out to control her future,” the press release reads, “even if it means destroying everything she has worked for."
