V románe "Dom so zlatými dverami" Amara musí čeliť ťažkostiam svojho nového života ako slobodná žena a závisieť od svojho patróna. Príbeh sa pomaly rozbieha, ale čitateľa okúzľuje štýlom písania a prostredím. Charaktery a postavy sú významnými aspektmi knihy, hoci niektoré akcie hlavnej hrdinky môžu byť prekvapivé. Romantická linka sa však čitateľovi nepodarila naplniť, ale postava Félixa je fascinujúca. Celkovo kniha neopantala toľko ako prvý diel série, ale čitateľa stále láka ďalšie pokračovanie.
