This book was originally released under another pen name. I'm excited to share it again—now published as Patti Ann Stafford.

With beloved tropes like fake engagement, grumpy/sunshine, and a reluctant-to-accept future mother-in-law, The Engagement promises to be an emotional escape into a world where love is fought for—and won—against all odds.
Minna never imagined she'd find herself fake-engaged to Aiden Drakos, the charming heir to a powerful Greek family, let alone falling for him. It started as a way to get his mother off his back and stop her relentless matchmaking with debutantes, but things quickly became more complicated. As their chemistry ignites and real feelings blur the lines between pretense and passion.
As the walls around Aiden's heart begin to crumble, Minna finds herself drawn deeper into his world—one filled with high society drama, a controlling mother who disapproves of her, and the expectations of a family dynasty. But when Aiden surprises her with a grand, heartfelt gesture, their fake relationship teeters on the edge of something dangerously real. Can they turn this ruse into a happily ever after, or will the obstacles they face tear them apart?
Expect a heartwarming journey full of emotional twists and turns, steamy tension, and tender moments that will tug at your heartstrings.
