Crossword Genius

Affection right for Romeo (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lover

'romeo' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'affection right' is the wordplay.
'affection' becomes 'love' (I've seen this before**).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'love'+'r'='LOVER'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for lover that I've seen before include "Opposite of hateful type" , "Juliet, for example" , "'Lady Chatterley's - - ' by D H Lawrence" , "Lothario" , "Beau" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
