Warm female in a moral tale (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

affable

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

'female in a moral tale' is the wordplay.
'female' becomes 'f' (abbreviation).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'moral tale' becomes 'fable' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'fable'='afable'
'f' going inside 'afable' is 'AFFABLE'.

(Other definitions for affable that I've seen before include "Easy to talk to" , "Good-humoured, friendly" , "Genial and cordial" , "Polite and friendly" , "Cordial, friendly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
