Exotic lover? Over being embraced by a Martian that's besotted (9)
I believe the answer is:
inamorata
'exotic lover?' is the definition.
'inamorata' can be an answer for 'lover?' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not sure about the 'exotic' bit.
'over being embraced by a martian that's besotted' is the wordplay.
'over' becomes 'o' (cricket abbreviation).
'being embraced by' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'that's besotted' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'martian'='amartian'
'amartian' anagrammed gives 'inamrata'.
'o' going within 'inamrata' is 'INAMORATA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inamorata that I've seen before include "A woman loved" , "Beloved of one another" , "Sweetheart" , "6 across [BOSOM] friend" , "Female lover" .)
