I like it because you can see a lot of Elena. But, I don't like that she's drawn so pale. Her multi-ethnic background is a big part of who she is, so to see her seeming to be your typical blond/blue is really jarring to me.
The cover is nice but I agree with Halo and Sarah. I always pictured Elena as golden and tawny as she appears in the Archangel's Kiss cover...here she appears pale and washed out and her boobies appear bigger and her wings smaller? Perhaps the boobies make the wings appear smaller? ;)
It's stunning! You have the greatest covers!! Now I'm wondering if those ruins and jungle atmosphere mean Elena is in South America or Southeast Asia. Hmmmmm.
AAAHHH!!! I LOVE IT!!!! That's almost just like I pictured Elena's wings. And she looks so badass, which rocks purple socks. Nalini's writing and Tony Mauro's artwork? A match made in heaven!
Question: Are the cover models the same on each of the books?? Or are they different??? I think they are different but can't tell for sure and it's really annoying me right now, haha.
When vampire hunter Elena Deveraux became an angel, with magnificent wings the colours of midnight and dawn, it turned her world upside down. Her lover, the stunningly dangerous archangel Raphael, is used to being in control even when it comes to the woman he considers his own. But Elena has never done well with authority . . . especially not when it seems Raphael is the one who needs her help. The archangels may be almost all-powerful, but there are some things that only a Guild Hunter can get done, and Elena and Raphael may be heading for their most dangerous investigation yet.
I love this cover. Tony is very talented, her wings are exactly as I imagined them(and I noticed Ellie's wearing Deacons arm sheathes)I can't wait for the book to come out
Hi Nalini, I love love love the cover, though she is more busty than I imagined ;) Gorgeous wings!! The cover gods love your books. Congrats! Can't wait to read it. xo Stephanie
Cover is OK, too simple though, and Elena seems pouty, pale, yellow blond, purple shirt?? Arch's Kiss shows her darker skinned, darker clothed, lighter hair - more like I picture her given her grandmother's heritage. Still, love the books, can overlook the cover.
Huge thanks to the Berkley Art Dept. and artist Tony Mauro!!

:thud: Somebody in that art department loves you! Congrats to you & them on a great cover.
Stunning!!!
Pretty!
Holy crap!!
I still have to read Archangel's Kiss. i might have to go get that soon.
Not to be greedy (oh who am I kidding?!), but do we already have a cover blurb and I missed it??
Those look like ruins behind Elena, and inquiring minds want to know...
Wow this is beautiful!!!
Nalini, I love it! I cannot wait to get my greedy hands on this book.
Love it! This is one sweet cover.
Great Cover! She is beautiful and I can't wait until I can get it on m y Kindle!!!!dercha

Oh my GOODNESS that is so incredibly awesome!
They seem to be getting edgier with each cover. Not bad!
yes yes yes and YES!
*splat*
WOW! I didn't think it was possible for the covers to get better, but they so do!
That is GORGEOUS! I love Elena's eyes especially. Do you happen to have a larger image available?
Nice to see covers that get it right.
FYI the cover for Archangel's Kiss is in the 2011 calendar the artist is offering for sale on his website. Maybe Archangel's Consort in the 2012?!
Looks like she's in the jungle. Me likey.
Love it! I can't wait to read this book. I'm addicted to this series!

LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!
Wow!!! Awesomely fabulous. The best one yet! Can't wait.
I know I'm the minority here, but I don't like it too much. I like Archangel's Kiss a lot more.
The cover is really beautiful! I can't wait for the book!

That is a stunning cover! Absolutely gorgeous.
GORGEOUS!....but where's the Archangel & the angel dust?
I also remember reading that angel's wings drag the ground. -c
AAAHHH!!! I LOVE IT!!!! That's almost just like I pictured Elena's wings. And she looks so badass, which rocks purple socks. Nalini's writing and Tony Mauro's artwork? A match made in heaven!
Oh! it's beautiful!
Gorgeous! I can't wait to see what the Australian cover is going to be like, because the cover art for the Oz books are quite lovely and simplistic...
Nalini!
Question: Are the cover models the same on each of the books?? Or are they different??? I think they are different but can't tell for sure and it's really annoying me right now, haha.
They are all beautiful covers tho! ;-)
OMG....how fabulous is this?! I so can't wait for it to come out now!
Lovely cover! I think this is the best one in all of the Guild Hunter books.
AHHH!!! I LOVE IT SO MUCH <3 <3 This makes me crazy that I can't go out and buy it NOW!
Very nice. I'm wondering if its the same artist produced the last two covers? I know I'm a might minority but I like the previous cover more.
Gorgeous! I'm listening the your first Guild Hunter book on my IPod. I'm enjoying the tale.
Congratulations on your awesome cover.
So beautiful, Nalini! Congrats!
This is a very beautiful cover with amazing coloring. Congrats on a perfect cover!
my mouth dropped open the moment I saw it. It's absolutely gorgeous! Love it. Love it. Love it. I'd buy the book for the cover alone.
I absolutely love this cover! Can't wait for the Guild series - need lots more 1 a year is not enough!
absolutely gorgeous!
Nalini, it's seriously cool!
Gorgeous! I burned through the last book - couldn't put it down. Can't wait for this one to come out!
Love it! Also, the best part is how clear Elena's face and wings are.. Waiting for tidbits...

This is fantastic cover Nalini - the Illustrator definitely deserves kudos.

Isn't Ellie supposed to be more golden skinned? It's a nice cover but like a couple others I pictured her with a nice golden glow.
L-O-V-E IT!! *hugs the cover*
Absolutely a beautiful way to start my day by seeing this cover. SQEEEEEE!!!!!
Awesome! Gorgeous cover!
WOW! That is an amazing gorgeous cover. They just keep getting better!

I love this cover. Tony is very talented, her wings are exactly as I imagined them(and I noticed Ellie's wearing Deacons arm sheathes)I can't wait for the book to come out

Niiiiiiccce! It looks like Deacon made her a special weapon.
OMG. Love the cover. Can’t wait for the book to be released. But i have to ask, are we ever going to get a cover with our favorite archangel Raphael?
I have to admit I prefer the cover for Archangel's Kiss, but this is still very nice.
No excerpt yet?
Gorgeous cover Naline - congrats!!
After much debate, I've decided this is my favorite cover of all your books! ;-)
wow!!!!! love it.... can't wait to read the book...
hmmm i like the cover, but i'm a little attached to the elena on Archangel's Kiss, but well i'll learn to adapt. Indigo is a little purple isn't it?
That cover is sooooo gorgeous! I have the first two books on my Kindle but I may have to buy this one in print, just for the cover!
WOW Just WOW
Helen G. says...........

I totally just want to read it NOW!
Thank you Nalini I LOVE the cover!! Congrats!!!
A big hug from California!!

As many people said here, the cover is good but doesn't really match Elena..the previous two covers conveyed her better.
Cover is OK, too simple though, and Elena seems pouty, pale, yellow blond, purple shirt?? Arch's Kiss shows her darker skinned, darker clothed, lighter hair - more like I picture her given her grandmother's heritage. Still, love the books, can overlook the cover.
