Love vs. a love

I often hear "a love for somebody." Is there any difference between "love for someone" or "a love for someone?"

Thanks so much for your time in advance.

Sincerely,

Tony

There isn't much difference in meaning. (There are syntactic differences, though, so sentences may need rejigging in order to change from one to the other. ")
