{Blog Tour} Scarlet Woods - Brooke Passmore


Scarlet Woods by Brooke Passmore
Series: Scarlet Woods #1
Release Date: Dec 2012
Past, future, and love all exist in the door through time.
Modern and independent seventeen year old Morgan Westbrook thought she had seen all there was to her home town of Scarlet, Georgia, but one day while walking in the woods behind her house she discovers a mysterious door masked behind the trees. After admiring the door’s timeless beauty she walks through its entrance to venture into more woods, but what she doesn’t know is that the door is a gateway through time that takes her back to the year 1863 during the days of the Civil War in Scarlet.
Without knowing that she had traveled back in time, she stumbles upon Danny Carson, an attractive young man who is appalled to see that Morgan is wearing skimpy modern clothes instead of a nineteenth century dress. Although they find each other completely different than anyone they’ve ever known, they cannot help but feel drawn to one another. After spending time in another century, she discovers that she's time traveled back to the year 1863 and that the door took her there. For months she and Danny journey back and forth through the door to experience the joys of traveling to both of their centuries. When dilemmas of unwanted marriage, slavery, and war are thrown at them, they must face the perils that time travel has delivered them in both the future and the past.

Today, I have a character interview with Morgan from Scarlet Woods :) 


-Morgan, thanks for putting aside some of your time traveling to answer some questions for this interview.

     I’m happy to do it, besides Danny was the one time traveling to see me in the future today so I didn’t miss out on anything really.

-So, how exactly do you time travel to the year 1863?
    
     I found out about time travel accidentally one day. I came upon this door in the woods behind my house and had no idea that walking through it would take me back to another century. It was a crazy experience and I still don’t know how that door is a portal through time, but hey it works so I take full advantage of time traveling every day.

-Is there anyone who knows that you time travel?



     Just Danny, no one else knows our secret. We can’t risk telling anyone about the door and have people think we’re crazy.

-Now Danny Carson is the boy you met back in 1863 correct?

     Yeah, he lives here in Scarlet but I live in the future while he lives in 1863. It’s weird that we both live in the same town but since we live in different centuries it’s like we live on two different planets since our time periods are so opposite.

-So speaking of Danny, he is engaged right?

     Yeah…

-And I’m guessing that you don’t get along with his fiancée?
    
     I would rather jump off a cliff if it meant avoiding her.

-What’s the best thing about time traveling back to the nineteenth century?

     Oh gosh it’s so much fun! I can’t even describe how incredible it is to be able to time travel. There are so many things I love about it that it’s so hard to choose what’s best. Even though sometimes I don’t like all the layers to the undergarments in the nineteenth century, I really do enjoy parading around in all the luxurious dresses I have. Also, men are much more gentlemanly to women during this time.

-What’s the worst thing about the nineteenth century?

     I freakin hate slavery. End of story. I could go on and on. Thanks to time travel, I have met this boy named Sam who is a slave and I just hate what all he has to go through at his plantation. Some slaves aren’t treated as bad as him, but still I don’t like it.

-Do you have any people in your life right now that you don’t care for?



     Well there’s Danny’s fiancée Evelyn Walker, who hates my guts, and then there’s her brother Roy Walker, who also hates my guts. I can’t stand the sight of him. He’s such a douche. The Walkers are the ones who own Sam. Roy is the main one who treats Sam bad. Every time I see Roy I want to punch him in the face.

-Is the Civil War a big problem during this time for you and Danny?



     The war hasn’t come to Scarlet yet. It will though eventually in 1864. I’ve told Danny about how the Union will come through Scarlet and practically destroy our town to the ground. He is scared of what is to happen to his home.
