A female and male prepared to get aroused (6)
I believe the answer is:
aflame
'aroused' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'a female and male prepared' is the wordplay.
'female' becomes 'f' (common abbreviation).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'prepared' indicates anagramming the letters.
'male' anagrammed gives 'lame'.
'a'+'f'+'lame'='AFLAME'
'to get' is the link.
(Other definitions for aflame that I've seen before include "Ma, flea could be burning" , "Indicating excitement" , "very hot" , "Ablaze" , "Ardent" .)
