Lovers excited you (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

solver

'you' is the definition.
(the solver of this crossword puzzle!)

'lovers excited' is the wordplay.
'excited' is an anagram indicator.
'lovers' is an anagram of 'SOLVER'.

(Other definitions for solver that I've seen before include "You're one, for instance" , "Private Eye" , "You find" , "One succeeding with crossword" , "Crossword completer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
