Crossword Genius

Consented to a vice (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agreed

'consented' is the definition.
(agreeing is a kind of consenting)

'a vice' is the wordplay.
'vice' becomes 'greed' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'greed'='AGREED'

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for agreed that I've seen before include "Of one mind" , "Settled by common consent" , "Was fitting" , "Acquiesed, concurred" , "That's right" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
