What were they thinking?

Now, have a look at this cover:



What have you noticed? Can you say what this book is about? Could you see the title? No? Let's consult the blurb then:



What if everything you always thought you wanted could be yours simply by saying "I do"? Billionaire Jordon Bennett needs to find a wife, now, to secure his position as CEO of B.H. Holdings. Reed Mohr could use a miracle to help pay for her alternative elder care facility, Potters Woods. Inside and out of the dojo, can these two survive sparring with each other?  

Look at the cover again- what would you think this book was about? Gardens? Gnomes? Gardens and gnomes? Dogs? Country live? No. It is a romance story. Go figure.

ETA: Apparently the publishers are laready thinking of changing it. Wise move.

At first glance this lovely cover might seem to be ok but...

If you are curious about the summary, you can find the review of this novel clicking here. In a nutshell: this lady, presumably the lively main heroine, lived in Regency era and she is dressed in an Empire dress...go figure. Next thing, in this picture the girl is playing a harp whereas the main heroine repeatedly announced in the novel that she couldn't play one single instrument, she could only play Faro which is not an instrument at all. In fact no other character in that book, male or female, played a harp EVER.
Somebody didn't do their homework?
