The album was recorded in the same format as Hearts in Armor with a more contemporary-styled music style. Her later album releases such as The Song Remembers When (1993) Thinkin' About You (1995) and Everybody Knows (1996) also demonstrated her creative control featuring collaborations from Rodney Crowell Willie Nelson and Garth Brooks. In November 2007 Yearwood released her tenth studio album titled Heaven Heartache and the Power of Love.

She is best known for her ballads about vulnerable young women from a female perspective that have been described by some music critics as "strong" and "confident. In addition Trisha Yearwood also set aside a project to release her first cookbook in April 2008 titled Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen which consisted of southern cooking recipes from Yearwood her mother and sister. Aside from her success in country music Trisha Yearwood has also donated her time as a philanthropist working with Habitat for Humanity and the Make a Wish Foundation.
