Generally, I shy away from Heaven and Hell type scenarios but the premise to The Devil To Pay caught me.  Plus, I've enjoyed Maria Zannini's previous work.Shannon is a simple but intelligent woman who has been taken advantage of by her ex-lover.  Left high and dry, Shannon drowns her sorrows in tequila and looks for redemption in an empty bottle.  What she doesn't realize is that her plea for redemption has been answered and it just may wreak more havoc.Two men appear in Shannon's life and you guessed it... both are drop dead gorgeous but after getting burned by her ex Shannon's not exactly in the right frame of mind.  The most surprising twist is trying to figure each of the men out.  Who is Heaven and who is Hell.  Speaking of the two "H" words, Maria Zannini offers a refreshing take on Heaven and Hell.  The two are not opposites of the other they are the same.  Huh? Yes, they are the same.  Both have the same end goal in mind but the process in which to get there differs.  I've piqued your interest, right? Good.The story's conflict didn't arc as drastically as I would have enjoyed.  A little more opposition would make for a complete read and rival the electric passion perfectly.  Thus, I would say that The Devil To Pay is more for the steamy passion readers verses the action gritty readers.  I have rated this one a 5 because the passion level was up there, characters were written well, and emotion was felt.
