Crossword Genius

Join woman with a kiss (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

annex

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

'woman with a kiss' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'anne' (I've seen this before**).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a kiss' becomes 'x'.
'anne'+'x'='ANNEX'

(Other definitions for annex that I've seen before include "Addition to a document" , "Add by conquest or occupation" , "Appropriate" , "Take by force" , "Add to one's territory" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
