I agree that the text design needs to change. I don't know enough about typesetting and graphics design to say why, but even aside from the typefaces themselves and the word placement, there is something about the font effect that screams "I typed this on my home computer." Take a look at some other mainstream paperback who's cover screams "professional" to you, and perhaps you'll be able to verbalize it better. Maybe it has to do with embossing effect or drop shadows. I don't know.
I like the artwork. Is it just me, or does the visual composition leave subtle, erotic, 'chastity belt' impression?
