Human of romance (3)

I believe the answer is:

man

'human' is the definition.
(I know that man is a type of male human)

'of romance' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'MAN' can be found hidden inside 'romance'.

(Other definitions for man that I've seen before include "race" , "Dude" , "just one" , "Fellow" , "Attendant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
