Run, Rose, Run: A Novel
Staff Reviews
It's Dolly Parton... what's not to love?!
I enjoyed following troubled young Annie Lee Keyes in her quick ascent to Nashville stardom. This multi-POV novel introduces us to an intriguing set of characters: between Annie, her superstar mentor, and her right-hand-man-turned-protector. Maybe even Nashville isn't far enough to run from a past that promises to hunt you down...
Description
THE #1 BESTSELLING THRILLER FROM AMERICA’S MOST BELOVED SUPERSTAR AND THE WORLD’S BESTSELLING AUTHOR. COMING AS A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM REESE WITHERSPOON’S HELLO SUNSHINE.
A new singer arrives in Nashville. She calls herself AnnieLee Keyes, and she has more beauty, talent, and ambition than most -- and a dangerous past that she's running from. Her performance of original songs at open-mic night at the Cat’s Paw Saloon downtown transfixes Ethan Blake, back-up musician for country star Ruthanna Ryder.
Ruthanna may have retired—for deeply personal reasons—but that doesn’t mean she’s stopped writing music. Every day, she records songs she’ll never release. When Ruthanna hears AnnieLee sing, the legend decides to help the ingenue.
But a boost from a mega-star like Ruthanna may spotlight the talented newcomer’s secret. Now AnnieLee may not live long enough to realize her dreams of stardom—or for the world to learn her true identity.
