GREAT premise - the power of magic would give women an unfair superiority over the physical advantages given to men. So, for the gifted women to work their magic, they must have a catalyst -the pleasure and devotion of men.
PLOT TWIST: a mere girl, only 12, manifests magic -
what was the catalyst? Her brother? Not likely. She wasn't a likely candidate for the gift with her mouse-brown hair and tomboy scrapes.
OFF SHE GOES - taken from her home and family - to an unknown -
Where there will be magic, of course, and temptresses, and excitements our heroine would never know, if she just stayed home, content.
