Care about one woman (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erica

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'woman' is the definition.

'care about one' is the wordplay.
'care about' becomes 'eric' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'one' becomes 'a'.
'eric'+'a'='ERICA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for erica that I've seen before include "Plant of the heath genus" , "Woman" , "found on the moors" , "Heather's Latin name?" , "Plant genus of garden heather" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
