More can be made of this affair (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

romance

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

'more can be made' is the wordplay.
'be made' indicates an anagram.
'more'+'can'='morecan'
'morecan' is an anagram of 'ROMANCE'.

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for romance that I've seen before include "Lie" , "marriage?" , "Sentimental affair in Menorca" , "Love-story" , "Court" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
