Can a humble ministry student and the beloved campus quarterback find an unexpected connection amid their clashing worlds? Hope is perfectly content being the introverted, faith-driven wallflower of Faith College. Burying her insecurities in ancient Scripture, she plans to spend her freshman year diligently preparing for a quiet life in ministry service. That is, until an electrifying encounter with the school's raucous star quarterback Cole awakens a part of Hope she never knew was restless. Despite outward appearances, Cole has grown disenchanted with the shallow glorification surrounding his athletic career. Unexpectedly drawn to the compassionate warmth radiating from the campus's resident "Scripture Girl", he soon finds himself engaging Hope in passionate debates about purpose, empathy, and which paths lead towards enlightenment. As unlikely friendship kindles into deeper stirrings of the soul, both Hope and Cole are forced to confront their most guarded vulnerabilities. Can the striking dissimilarities forged by their separate worlds be transcended by a higher love? Or will the trappings of expectation pulling them apart prove stronger than the unifying grace that first brought them into each other's orbits? Brimming with heartrending realness, thoughtful spirituality, and cheerful romantic tension, "Seen and Known" is a soul-awakening reminder that only by fearlessly unveiling our most authentic selves can we be truly beheld by both heaven and our soulmate alike.An uplifting journey towards empowered self-discovery perfect for fans of Karen Kingsbury, Becky Wade, and Denise Hunter.
