Now that we’ve looked at the Falcon’s Eye view of the property where the Fury Falls Inn is situated as well as the Main Floor, let’s look at the guest rooms upstairs. Remember that the inn is a large building, comprised of two separate structures joined by the covered porch. The upper floor of the public side of the building is arranged with a central hall dividing the 7 guest rooms, with a common seating area at the back by a window. A linen closet is at the front of the building, at the top of the stairs which lead down to the first floor landing near the door to the dog-trot porch between the structures.
You’ll notice in the image that each guest room is simply furnished: a bed, dresser, table and chair by the window. There are no closets in the rooms, since they were uncommon if they existed at that time frame. Wardrobes of one kind or another were used far more often. In more rustic dwellings the inhabitants might use pegs on the wall to hang frequently worn clothing and coats/cloaks or trunks to store their better clothing away from dust and light. The simplicity of these temporary accommodations is the reason why Cassie’s father ventured so far to make high-quality improvements to the furniture and furnishings. He really wants to impress his customers!
Next time we’ll look into the private lives of the Fairhope family, with a peek at the main floor of their residence.
I’m so thrilled to be on the cusp of the release of Fractured Crystals! Tomorrow is the big day! I hope you enjoy meeting Daniel and learning more about his life before coming to the inn for the first time.
Happy reading!

Fury Falls Inn in 1821 Alabama. A place for ghosts, witches, and magic. A place of secrets and hidden dangers. A place where Daniel Fairhope’s family kept life-changing secrets from him.
His sister’s magic is coveted by two powerful, angry witches intent on her willing compliance with their demands. Worse, a witch hunter is on the loose, determined to rid the area of all witches. Struggling to cope with those threats, Daniel discovers his own unique and powerful ability as well as those of his estranged brothers. Abilities they’ll need to unite to protect their sister and the family secrets. But these challenges all pale in comparison to convincing the captivating woman he meets at the inn to trust him before she breaks his heart.
