That man with talent to make love (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heart

'love' is the definition.
(heart is a kind of love)

'that man with talent' is the wordplay.
'that man' becomes 'he' (he refers to a man).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'talent' becomes 'art' (I've seen this in another clue).
'he'+'art'='HEART'

'to make' is the link.

(Other definitions for heart that I've seen before include "Vital part" , "Central part" , "Pumping organ" , "Feeling" , "the name of a prison in Midlothian!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
