The text on the cover accurately describes the plot of the interior story "Unwilling Bride" but the scene depicted in the cover photo doesn't resemble anything in the interior story.

Blanche; Dave
Blanche eloped with Craige at age 17, then got an annulment. Several years later, she marries Dave. They leave on their honeymoon, and a storm forces them to stay at the same hotel where she’d spent her first wedding night. When Dave finds out, he assumes Blanche was “really married, in the full sense of the word... it’s just like marrying a divorced woman...” Blanche rushes out into the storm and has to be rescued by Dave. Dave apologizes, says he loves Blanche anyway, and then Blanche tells him that she also ran out on Craige on her wedding night (so she’s still a virgin).

The word "virgin" isn't used in the story but it's clear that this is what Dave is referring to, when he says Blanche concealed that she was "really married, in the full sense of the word" at age 17.
