Your story is really very unique. The way you have excuted the bet phase in your style is really appreciable. Just the two areas where you really need to work upon are the cover and blurb. Also, you must attach a character sketch in the beginning.

Your story was interesting but somewhere I felt that the story was rushing. You could have made it a TS maybe. Also, emotions couldn't be expressed properly because of lack of content. This plot had a lot of potential but wasn't executed well. However, the shayaris in the middle of the story were really touching. Try to get a new cover made, edit your blurb and do add a prologue and character sketch, because even if it is a One Shot, both these things are very important.

The cover is pretty but very simple. It does not relate much with the story line. Also, the font used is very small hence author's name is a bit blurry. Along with that, there are grammatical and punctuation errors in the cover as well. The title is quite cliché. A blurb, a prologue and character sketch, three of the most important things are missing. There are a too many grammatical errors and the use of emojis hamper the flow of the story. Also every Character has not been given equal justice. The book requires heavy editing and a new outlook.

The cover is just a simple imag which does not even relate with the story line and the faces of Samaina are also half cropped. The blurb, prologue and a character sketch is missing while grammatical errors are also noticed. All Characters are not given equal importance. Also the plot is really very good but it lacks some twists and the use of emojis hamper the flow of the storyline. Try to work on your book a little to make it attractive enough for the readers to catch.
