The Man for a Missy (ON HOLD)

Diagnosed with the genetic disease that took her father's life, Jachy must find her dream man before she disappears forever.

***********************************
Eleven year old Monye Jachinma hasn't got much time left to live and she knows that, no matter what her loving mother says. But just like everyone else, she nurses a little dream: growing old enough to get married to a man that would meet her standards and expectations--a man just like her father.

Onuora Kingsley Egwuono, CEO of Greener life Enterprise, is a workaholic. Having lost his long time girl friend who'd lost faith in him to a much richer man, the growth of his company has become his sole purpose in life. But everything changes when he is forced to go on a blind date and encounters a 'little' problem.

"What sort of trick is this?" Kingsley scowled, sliding the phone back. The evidence was irrefutable. Had he really been conversing with this child? "I was shown pictures of three women. I'm supposed to meet one of them here, a miss Roselyn."

"It's not a trick. That's my other name. Monye Jachinma Roselyn. As for the picture," She folded her lips in, unfolded them. "I used some random woman's pic on the internet. Okay, maybe I did trick you a little."

"Wait, wait a minute..." he humored her with a wry chuckle. "Are you seriously trying to tell me that my date is a ten year old child?"

"Eleven," she corrected.

"Oh, great," he said sarcastically, pinching his nose bridge and shutting his eyes. "That makes everything better. How did they not know this?" he asked himself.

"Long story, but it's all in the past now. This is the present." She bantered then those dark eyes twinkled. "So, you're Kingsley. I thought you'd be better looking."

A muscle in his jaw twitched."And I thought, you'd be a real woman, and not some kid playing dress up."
