Meaning
Swept off one's feet in a romantic haze.
Origin
Originally a cricketing term and only later applied to maidens meaning young women. In the cricketing context a batsman would be confused by the bowler and have his wicket 'bowled over'. Staying with cricket, an over is six balls and a maiden is an over that the batsmen fails to score from. Bowling a maiden over seems to have started in cricket and then migrated in meaning later.
