The big winner seems to be Becca Fitzpatrick's Hush, Hush....

Re: Link to Urban Fantasy Cover Art Winners

I voted for that cover. I can't remember, but I think the site had the voters choose more than just one pick for the best cover category. A very dramatic cover, but did anyone notice that the jeans are inconsistent. I mean it's supposed to depict an angel's fall from heaven, and somehow heavenly angels in jeans just isn't right. I mean, yeah, if they're on earth doing good deeds disguised as humans, but somehow I feel the classical nude would have been more consistent. I suspect the cover would then have gotten about a 98% rating, rather than 63%. Of course then it wouldn't have been suitable for teens.
