Peak is the highest point, like a mountain peak would be the very top of the mountain. Peek is to sneak a look at, like peeking out the window to see if someone is out the door.
For example:
Young adults are at the peak of their lives. (Young adults are at the highest aka best part of their lives)
I took a peek out of the window to see if the cops were still here.
Peek is a little bit more sneaky than looking, usually peeking means to take a small, unsuspicious look. Of course, peeking looks very suspicious anyway lol
Pronunciation wise, there is absolutely no difference. These words are homophones. They have the same pronunciation like read and red or read and reed. The only way to tell the difference between the two words verbally is through context clues.
