Sweet Dreams (novel series)
2026-11-15 02:47:41 · The Daily Ledger
Sweet Dreams is a series of over 230 numbered, stand-alone teen romance novels that were published from 1981 to 1996. Written by mostly American writers, notable authors include Barbara Conklin, Janet Quin-Harkin, Laurie Lykken, Marilyn Kaye (writing under the pseudonym Shannon Blair), and Yvonne Greene.
Each teen novel dealt with common high school drama and romance themes, including first dates, first love, and conflicts. It was through these books that the major teen book series Sweet Valley High was launched.

Cover designs used photographs of models similar to each novel's heroine's description. The cover of The Last Word featured Courteney Cox.
