Struck son with glove (7)
I believe the answer is:
smitten
'struck' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'son with glove' is the wordplay.
'son' becomes 's' (genealogical abbreviation for son).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'glove' becomes 'mitten' (mitten is a kind of glove).
's'+'mitten'='SMITTEN'
(Other definitions for smitten that I've seen before include "bowled over" , "Affected or struck by, disease or desire" , "Enchanted by mittens" , "Affected by something overwhelming" , "Strongly affected (by something)" .)
