Learn me something, internets

Okay, if you had to define the difference between urban fantasy and paranormal romance, how would you go about doing that?

I'm actually more stumped by this question that I expected to be.

Just playing devil's advocate for a moment (you know me, *g*): how do you decide, if you're given a certain book, whether it is a romance novel or a fantasy novel if it has equal elements of both?

Because I've come across novels that could viably be classified as either, because the romance is just as integral to the book as the fantasy and vice versa.

Does it come down to structure or something?
