It is inappropriate to use such a formal construction in a love letter. Moreover, Sophie knows her husband's name, so it does not make sense to use a construction without a name.
It does not make sense to begin a letter with this greeting. We only use the expressions "good morning", "good afternoon", and "good evening" when talking out loud to a person.
This is an inappropriate way to begin a love letter. It does not make sense to refer to one's husband with his title and surname: this construction is too formal for people involved in a romantic relationship.
"Darling Bob" is the most appropriate way to begin a love letter. "Darling" is a term of endearment which is used when talked to loved ones. It therefore makes sense for a wife to use it when writing to her husband. Example: "My darling daughter, I miss you very much".
This construction is never used to begin a letter. If we are not sure of the gender of our correspondent, we write "Dear Sir or Madam".
It does not make sense to use such a formal construction in this context. Moreover, there is only one recipient of Sophie's love letter.

The term "dearest" is used to address a close friend, family member, or lover. It is not appropriate in the context of a formal email.
"Ladies and gentlemen" is a greeting used when addressing an audience. Example: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the San Francisco Opera House. The show will begin in 3 minutes, so please take your seats". We do not use this expression in written English.
