Trivia facts:
A Time and a Season was Curtiss Ann’s first novel, and also the most reprinted around the world.
Little Town, Great Big Life is Curtiss Ann’s thirtieth novel for Harlequin/Mira Books, as well as the last book of the Valentine Series.
Curtiss Ann authored one of the series of books based on the Dallas television series. Three of the television scripts were provided. The story centered around Pam Ewing’s desire for a child.
Curtiss Ann also had one of the earliest e-pubbed stories, a short story entitled The Power of the Brownie at the Yippee-I-O Cafe.
The cover on the e-book edition of If Wishes Were Horses is from a photograph of Curtiss Ann and her colt, Baby.
An early Silhouette Special Edition, Lindsey’s Rainbow, was the only book set in Florida. Curtiss Ann lived as a child and young adult in both Tampa and Jacksonville.
Dear Curtiss,
I just read your book Sweet Dreams at the Goodnight Hotel, and enjoyed it so much. On reading your blog, it appears you may suffer from celiac disease. I’m so sorry to hear this. It reminded me of some reading I’ve done lately on Vitamin D3 (the sunshine vitamin). You’re likely already aware of this, but apparently some new and emerging research suggests that a Vitamin D3 deficiency may be a causative factor in celiac disease and/or that celiac disease can interfere with absorption of Vitamin D3 by the small intestine. Vitamin D3 also apparently has many other health benefits, including as an anti-oxidant (preventing cancers), retention of bone density, etc. I won’t go on but just wanted to mention this for your consideration. Thanks again for your lovely book.
Yes, I have Celiac disease. Malnutrition of many nutrients is a result. I was very iron anemic, blood tests showed for a number of years. It was only in the past month that a doctor, really a general practitioner PA, tested me for Vitamin D deficiency. I did not think I would be lacking, as I have taken cod liver oil for years. But I was! All those specialists, all the times I sought help for chronic fatigue, and no doctor ever before even mentioned it. I, too, have been reading on Vitamin D, and am amazed that we need far more than has previously thought. Since taking higher supplements, I am feeling much stronger, not to mention beautiful nails.
Thanks for bringing up the subject.

Hi…I just started reading “Sweet Dreams at the Goodnight Motel”, and should have checked your book list first! I have all your other books but, didn’t realize they were a series, sooo I’m gonna start over and read the first one in the Valentine series. I love your books…their funny, inspiring and just plain good. I love the characters and your settings…shoot, just everything and they have given me many hours of pleasurable reading. Thank you!
Blessings,
Sandy
Hi Curtiss Ann, I recently read the four books on the Breen men. I have had these books for years and have never read them. Is that amazing or what? I loved the books as much as the Valentine series. Is there ever a chance that you will do a sequel on the Breens? I am looking forward to your next book whatever it may be because I really like your writing and I wish you many, many years of publishing new books. Sincerely, Joyce Collins
Joyce– So kind of you to let me know that you enjoyed the Breen series! I just recently found all books in the series in my boxes of stock. I should read them myself.

Hi Curtiss Ann,
I just ready Lost Highways and I loved it. Is there a sequel? I want to know what happened to Rainey and Harry!
Hello, Lauri. Lost Highways was the first book of the ‘Valentine Series’. Directly following is Driving Lessons, the story of Rainey’s sister, Charlene. Rainey makes an appearance in Driving Lessons, and we get to see her firmly settled with Harry.
Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed Lost Highways!
