Well, that One Sexy Daddy book cover I showed you a bunch of years ago was a professional work by an artist from the prestigious publishers at Harlequin, no less, and that cover would definitely have earned the wink wink nudge nudge and (probably) WTF tag from you here. (As I mentioned at the time, there was nothing wrong with the cover picture by itself or the book title by itself, but when you put them together…) So yes: it’s definitely possible for a cover to be both professional and lousy.
I’m guessing someone (probably whoever told the artist what kind of story the cover was to be advertising without thinking to mention what the title was going to be) got fired over that.

Personally, my romantic ideal wouldn’t have a humpback, but I suppose to each her own.
Well, I guess it’s what you want to focus on.
