Crossword Genius

Booked as promised (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

engaged

I believe this is a double definition.

'booked' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'promised' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

'as' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for engaged that I've seen before include "Not free" , "In use" , "Started fighting" , "looking forward to the match?" , "Affianced" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
