Before you can come back on any visa: whether a fiancee visa or an immigrant visa, you will need to have a permission to enter the USA after removal and possibly a waiver of inadmissibility approved.

How were you able to obtain a visa after overstay? Did you misrepresent anything on your visa application? Why your admission was denied? Do you have copies of the paperwork given to you by the CBP when they denied your admission?

I suggest you need a good immigration lawyer. First of all, a lawyer should review your situation and advise you. This internet forum should be only a starting point for your research.
