In the rugged Ozarks of beautiful Branson, Missouri, a woman struggles to save her marriage—and finds answers from an unexpected source . . .
Allison felt like she’d stepped into a fairy tale when she married widower Burke Caldwell. But after less than a year of marriage, he’s become removed and distant. His friends see Allison as little more than a trophy wife, his only daughter regards her as the enemy. With everyone so devoted to the memory of Burke’s first wife, Kate, how can Allison possibly compete? Then a harrowing car crash leaves Burke badly injured. But it becomes achingly clear that the woman Burke wants by his side is the wife he lost . . .
No longer able to dismiss the power Kate still holds, Allison can’t resist reading a trove of hidden letters from Kate to Burke. What she discovers sets her mind reeling. The letters give Allison an enlightening window into her husband’s heart. But will she have the courage to put aside her own fears, and grab hold of a love as big and bold as the man she once dared to marry?

"Janet Dailey gives us a story of love, second chances, and courage. We find Allison Caldwell out on the balcony while everyone else is inside celebrating her husband's birthday. She overhears the guests as they criticize her party, her redecorating, and her marriage. She is constantly being compared to the first Mrs. Caldwell by his friends and family and not to mention being called Kate by her own husband at times of stress. What started out as a quick trip to the office missing his own birthday dinner lands Burke in the hospital. Allison finds letters from Kate to Burke stuffed in a desk drawer. She starts to read them to better understand Kate and the fairytale marriage she kept hearing about hoping to help her marriage to the same man. Will Allison find the answers she seeks so desperately or will it only give way to more questions? Will she and Burke weather this storm and come out on the other side stronger than before?
Janet Dailey presents a lovely story about two people whose love is constantly questioned by family and friends. She shares how the past may be able to help the present and future if you listen to the message closely and take the lessons learned to heart. I have enjoyed reading about Allison and Burke. I did feel that the ending was a bit rushed tying up all the loose ends.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I would like to thank NetGalley and Kensington Books for this privilege."

- I used to read each Janet Dailey book as soon as it came out. For some reason I just moved on to other authors and when I bought my first kindle i really branched out in my reading. This book was well written but I didn't give it give it 5 stars because I didn't like the ending at all. It was rushed and abruptly ended.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I would like to thank NetGalley and Kensington Books for this privilege. - Letters from Peaceful Lane is a story of a woman who married a widower, but can't seem to shake the shadow of his first wife. When an accident happens, she is forced to make some difficult decisions, and many of them without her husband's knowledge.
I found this story to be a little too pat, with everything getting resolved very quickly. The good part of that is the story was over soon, and didn't drag on. There was a nice outcome to the story, but there was never any real drama. When Allison, the second wife, was in a situation that could have been very dangerous, it was not dangerous at all.
This book was just OK, not great, not terrible.
#LettersFromPeacefulLane #JanetDailey - A story of being strong when it matters most. Allison is married to a stubborn, wealthy man. His friends and daughter treat her horribly, but she stays because she loves her husband. When they get in an argument on his birthday, he leaves to put out a fire at work, and gets in a car accident. When Burke wakes up, he pushes Allison away because he is afraid that he won't be able to provide for her the way he wants to. His health might not ever recover and his business is going down the tubes, unless he can get a bank loan. But there is someone working against him, and he and Allison have to work together to save everything. The hardest part for Allison is when Burke calls her by his dead wife's name. It isn't all of the time, but it hurts nonetheless. When Allison finds an envelope with letters from Kate to Burke, she gets new insight, some of it heartbreaking, into his life before her. How strong can she be and will it be enough to save his business?
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest, voluntary review. - This was a quick easy romance novel with a nice, even though unbelievable, story and several interesting characters. The main characters are Allison, the new younger wife who is perceived to be a 'trophy wife' but has hidden strengths and lots of love for her husband Burke. Burke owns a theater in Branson MS that has fallen on hard times and he needs a loan to revitalize the theater. His daughter Brianna is a spoiled college student who doesn't like his new wife, Allison. And then we have Kate, the dead first wife who left letters for Burke that she wrote during their marriage and that helped Allison as she struggles with her marriage to Burke. Add in an unscrupulous business partner and you have a story that is interesting and fun to read. It's a story that's been told before but is a good quick read.
