It may have been different for your family's company, but this is definitely not how it works for most publishers. If they're lucky, have an astute, persuasive agent and get the right contract, an author MIGHT have some say in the cover process. But usually this means they get to SEE the cover at some point and have the opportunity to express their opinion-- which may be noted by the publisher, but the author doesn't get final approval by a long shot.

It's even worse for epubs. Look at all the horrific cover art that comes out of Ellora's Cave, frex.
