THE YELLOW HOUSEdelves into the passion and politics of Northern Ireland at the beginning of the 20th Century. Eileen O'Neill's family is torn apart by religious intolerance and secrets from the past. Determined to reclaim her ancestral home and reunite her family, Eileen begins working at the local mill, saving her money and holding fast to her dream. As war is declared on a local and global scale, Eileen cannot separate the politics from the very personal impact the conflict has had on her own life. She is soon torn between two men, each drawing her to one extreme. One is a charismatic and passionate political activist determined to win Irish independence from Great Britain at any cost, who appeals to her warrior's soul. The other is the wealthy and handsome black sheep of the pacifist family who owns the mill where she works, and whose persistent attention becomes impossible for her to ignore.

The Yellow House
A historical fiction book about Northern Ireland in the early 1900's during all the religious tensions around the Irish Revolution. Eileen, our heroin, loses her family in the beginning of the novel and works hard to reestablish herself and find security. I loved Eileen and how stubborn and passionate she is through out the book. I honestly thought this would be a simple love story but it really goes deeper than that to Eileen's own questions of identity and loyalty. Not that much time is really even spent on the relationship between her and James or her and Owen. There's a lot more about the cultural shifts and Eileen struggling to understand how to reconcile what happened to her family with her own identity and how she feels about those that fall outside of it. The beginning of the story was a little slow but it does pick up and if you stick with it it's worth it.
