About this listen

"Hope was a funny thing. It ebbed and flowed. Drove some people to fits of passion and others to their knees in prayer. Hope was fickle and fleeting–and it was all she had. Hope that whatever came to pass was enough and that she would find her peace with whatever else was let go along the way."

When the answers to the most difficult questions are the ones that lead us to our truest selves, would you trust the outcome to a coin toss?

Twelve years ago, Harper Andrews put her law school dreams on hold during her mother's cancer treatment, changing the entire trajectory of her personal and professional life. Now a successful paralegal at a large Chicago firm, Harper's days at the office are spent supporting the very lawyers she once hoped to become. Meanwhile at home, she and her husband privately struggle to start a family. Though not her plan, Harper can imagine a future with kids and a home near her favorite park...sometimes. But when an unexpected opportunity offers a chance to revisit the law school dream she abandoned, everything changes.

Between the bustling offices of Chicago's legal world and the quiet, intimate moments of a couple struggling with the future of their family, Kate Laack expertly weaves a compelling story of ambition, love, the expectations we're willing to challenge, and the decisions that define our lives. While the Coin is in the Air is an instant winner for book clubs and not to be missed by lovers of heartfelt, women's fiction.

Infertility handled in an honest way

As someone who has navigated my own journey with infertility, I approached this book with caution, knowing it could be triggering. What I didn’t expect was how deeply it would resonate with me—not just as a story, but as a validation of the emotions, struggles, and unspoken truths that so many women experience.

Laack masterfully captures the raw and complex reality of infertility, weaving together the emotional, physical, and psychological toll it takes. Her writing is fearless, giving voice to a story that is often left in the shadows. She doesn’t just tell a tale—she creates a space for readers to feel seen, understood, and less alone.

If you’ve ever struggled with infertility, if you know someone who has, or if you simply want to challenge your perspective on what it means to fight for something that feels just out of reach, this book is essential. It is messy, real, heartbreaking, and ultimately triumphant—the kind of book that keeps you turning the pages, desperate to see how it all unfolds, even when you’re unsure what "happy ending" truly means.

Read this. Feel this. Let it change you.

Real, Raw, and Relatable

Absolutely loved While the Coin Is in the Air! Kate Laack delivers a beautifully written, deeply relatable story that hits on the real and raw emotions of the choices women face—family, career, relationships, and the ever-elusive idea of success. She writes with such kindness and thoughtfulness, yet she doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff.

The characters feel like people you know (or are), and the emotional depth makes this one of those books you can’t put down. Kate Laack is a new author to watch—she has a gift for storytelling that makes you see yourself on the pages. Five stars, no question!
