Love Triangle

A romantic fantasy trope where three characters are entangled in a love conflict, leading to rivalry, heartbreak, and difficult choices. Love triangles often involve childhood friends vs. mysterious strangers, duty vs. passion, or a morally gray love interest competing with a golden-hearted hero. 📖 Book Example: Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo – Alina is torn between Mal, her childhood best friend, and the Darkling, a powerful yet dangerous figure.
