Crossword Genius

Star of Love Games (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

vega

'star' is the definition.
(I know that Vega is an binary star)

'of love games' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'VEGA' is hidden within 'love games'.

(Other definitions for vega that I've seen before include "Gave turn to a star" , "Fifth brightest star" , "Star in Lyra; grassy plain (Spanish)" , "First magnitude star" , "heavenly body" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
