Title: The Promise of Forever
Genre: Romance
Author: dreamysoul08

I was instantly intrigued by your cover. I loved the title and the description raised my curiosity immediately. Your questions really helped me to get completely hooked to your story.

Your prologue is more like a peek of the story, which is absolutely fine, but you might want to check out the way you lay your chapter. The layout of the page felt a little disorganized, the asterisks that you use to separate the page are out of place, and I don't understand the use for the dots on the side of the page, but I would rearrange it and make it more nitty. Absolutely loved the banner at the end of your chapter!

I loved your plot idea, even though I'm not at all familiar with arranged marriages, but you were able to explain it very thoroughly and brought to light different views and beliefs on the matter.

As a writer, I'm very faithful to my main character POV. As a reader, I sometimes struggle with some approaches that a lot of writers take when trying to have more than one POV in their book, but I felt very much at ease while reading your story. I was able to get to know each one's beliefs and decisions.

I can see that family is a big deal for you as well because your emotions completely translated out of your book. Your focus was on the main characters but you gave room for every character to shine without overwhelming the story.

On a grammatical point of view, I do think you need editing, so, please consider it as it would improve your work. I noticed that you tend to add three dots in almost everything, and while on texting that's completely fine, on your book it doesn't look as good, so maybe reconsider editing.

I have never read books about arranged marriages or even much about India culture, so this was very new to me, but what it should be seen as sad and wrong like a forced marriage, in your story you made it beautiful and romantic, and you portrayed your main characters beautifully.
