Love helping after trouble (9)
I believe the answer is:
adoration
'love' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'helping after trouble' is the wordplay.
'helping' becomes 'ration' (I've seen this before).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'trouble' becomes 'ado' (I've seen this before).
'ration' put after 'ado' is 'ADORATION'.
(Other definitions for adoration that I've seen before include "praise" , "Honour" , "Hero-worship" , "enormous respect" , "What star gets from fans" .)
