Dinosaur hunter Raine Ashaway lives for the thrill of the next archaeological find. A mysterious encounter with a young woman named Lia sends her off on a quest into the depths of the jungles of Bornea in search of an opalized T. Rex. She must deal with her competitor, Kincade, who appears to have a personal grudge against the Ashaway family. Meanwhile, another man is searching for the treasure and he's willing to do anything to find it first.

AN ANGEL IN STONE is the first book in The Bone Hunters series. Raine Ashaway initially comes across a bit uncouth when mingling in the museum, especially considering the tactics she uses to thwart the would-be robbers. However, once Raine is in the world she is best suited for, the actual dinosaur hunt, her rough edges smooth out. Her Indiana Jones-like persona begins to emerge and the action truly kicks in.

AN ANGEL IN STONE is the perfect example of the Silhouette Bombshell line. The combination of action and romance is superb as readers travel on a harrowing journey in search of the opalized T. Rex. This was actually my second reading of this story and Peggy Nicholson definitely writes a tale that stands the test of time as it was just as enjoyable as it was on the first reading.
