Cover Crush – UK Edition: ‘Avenger’s Angel’ by Heather Killough-Walden
by Carolyn • Posted in Cover Crush
‘Cover Crush’ is a regular feature here at BCC. I love covers – they’re the first thing that catches my eye and will be the primary reason I pick up a book. This feature is where I highlight gorgeous covers of books I’ve seen either around the blogosphere or at the bookshop. These posts run sporadically, as soon as I see a cover I love, I post it!
I loved ‘Avenger’s Angel‘ and thought it was a fantastic start to a new paranormal romance series. It’s the cover that really made me want to read it though – I mean, look at it, isn’t it gorgeous – ahh those wings! Angel’s are fast becoming one of my favourite of all paranormal ‘creatures’. I also think this cover is SO much better than the US edition, and really matches up with the story. So, what do you think – do you love it?
Release Date: Nov 2011
Publisher: Headline
Artist: Lee Gibbons
Summary
The first in Heather Killough-Walden’s fantastic new paranormal series, the Lost Angels, features Uriel, the Angel of Vengeance. Four thousand years ago, four archangels were cast down to Earth in human form. God’s favourites, they came to find their mates, the other half of their souls made only for them, without whom they will never be complete.
Uriel, Gabriel, Azrael and Michael, however, were not alone. They were followed by another, determined to find the archesses for himself, and whose power cannot be underestimated. But after centuries of fruitless searching, the archangels — and their enemy — have all but given up hope. Until one day beautiful and gifted Eleanore Granger crosses paths with Uriel, the Angel of Vengeance. And as a storm rages, outside forces conspire together, initiating an age old battle of good versus evil to win the first archess.

I would have to agree with you. I like the UK cover better than the US cover. I've never read anything from this author I will have to pick it up and give it a go. Thanks for the suggestion.

Lola – This is the first book I have read by this author too. She did self-publish but has now been picked up by a publisher. The book is really good so would recommend it – glad you like the cover too
Willa – I don't think you have to be a teen to love this cover – in fact this is very much an adult book. I'm well out of my teens and I lure this cover to bits!

HLW is one of my favorite authors ever, I've read all of her books except this one and Finding Neverland. So if you need a recommendation, I can help!!
With that being said, I totally adore this cover. The other cover isn't bad, but it totally makes me feel "wolf" more than "angel".
