In the late 1980s, Wallace collaborated with fellow screenwriter Madeline DiMaggio on a screenplay they called ''If The Shoe Fits''. This was made into a low-budget movie that barely resembled their script.

The following year, ''Borrowed Hearts'' became one of the highest-rated CBS movies.〔 Wallace also adapted one of her own novels, ''Straight From the Heart'' into a screenplay for Hallmark Channel. The resulting movie became the highest-rated film for the network in 2003.〔 She also penned the screenplay for the 2006 Hallmark Channel movie ''Though None Go with Me'', starring Cheryl Ladd.
