Not impressive - Your audience is not Wattpad anymore.
OKAY, right off the bat, the title which includes the words "Bad Boy" cheapened the look. This is not 2010. The term "bad boy" is so overused.
The cover is unconvincing, I would've thought that the book was a standard cheap book at Target. And also, what kind of bad boy wears striped t-shirts???
Overall, the quality and standard of the book is low, like a standard story birthed off Wattpad. Coming off Wattpad, it's hard to compete with the high quality books that understand that the title and cover is everything. I'm not sure that the author understands that yet. People may say that we shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.... but most of us still do, and it's how readers discern the quality of a book.
In a bookstore, I wouldn't have picked up this book.
Overall, it is a teen flick for dreamy 12 year-olds eager to have a bad-boy of their own. Not impressive, your audience is not Wattpad anymore.
This is all from chapter one.
