No, once a woman is given an engagement ring it is hers to keep, but many women would prefer to give the ring back as they are no longer engaged. Also, even if the man gets the engagement ring back it would be crass to give it to another woman should he become engaged again. If the engagement ring was a family heirloom then it would be kind of her to return the ring.
It really depends on the circumstances behind the engagement, if the item is given during a holiday or as birthday gift then it might be assumed that it was a gift. However, if the engagement ring is not given as a gift the ring should be returned. The purpose of an engagement ring is to prove a man's commitment to a woman, if the engagement is broken off then the ring should most definitely be returned.
