ENGAGED is a contemporary women’s fiction novel where Nadine’s perfect on-paper life begins to unravel when she realizes she isn’t just restless… She’s no longer in love.
At first, Nadine blames school, stress, work… But then she meets Miller, a coworker whose attention makes her feel seen in ways her fiancé, Daniel, no longer does. What starts as a harmless friendship sharpens into something far more dangerous: the realization that she may have chosen stability over passion, safety over self.
As her feelings deepen, Nadine risks not only her relationship with Daniel but also her bond with his sister—her best friend—who senses the shift before Nadine can admit it herself. When one slip makes her feelings impossible to hide, Nadine must decide whether to salvage the life she built or dismantle it in pursuit of one that actually feels like hers.
ENGAGED explores desire, self-deception, and the messy bravery required to choose authenticity over comfort.

My wish is for this book to find the eyes of anyone who is navigating complex one-on-one partnerships and is having a hard time saying what they need to say. I hope that my book can be cathartic for anyone grieving any kind of break up.
