Agree with Nathan. This cover should be redone.
“Mail Order Bride:
“[Spoiler Alert]
“Captured By Indians, Rescued By Her Heroic Cowboy”
I have occasionally been called out on my movie and book comments for not including [Spoiler Alert]–and that was discussing old stuff where I assumed all commenters had seen/read it. This is — I presume — a new book.

Of course, with bodice-rippers, it’s usually not too difficult to guess the plot. Still, you kind of have to wonder why anyone would feel the need to read the book when the whole story is neatly summarized on the cover.
“Is she going to get sexually ravished by a bunch of savage natives? [Spoiler Alert] No, just the one cowboy who rescues her, and most of that will be off-page during the chapter break between the wedding and the epilogue.”

Surely getting tag-teamed by an entire group of Indians is more romantic than getting taken by a single cowboy.

One of them is either Johnny Depp or a Johnny Depp Cosplay.
Does that sweeten the deal?
She looks like a Sixties Flower Child. They didn’t look like that in the Old West.
And a “Clean” Western Historical Romance? OK, whatever…
Needs more fonts.
And words! Lots.
More. WORDS!!!
PosRe: Tonto is a nice touch.
But not really.
Well, john e.:
Maybe this cover is just natively bad…eh?
