** In ''Literature/TheMortalInstruments'', Clary falls for Jace. [[MuggleBestFriend Long time best friend Simon]] has always loved Clary, but Clary [[ObliviousToLove doesn't find out until later]]. Jace returns Clary's feelings and they kiss, but then they found out they are siblings and broke up. Clary then briefly dates Simon until deciding they are BetterAsFriends.

* At the heart of Creator/FyodorDostoevsky's ''Literature/TheBrothersKaramazov'' is an intricate LoveDodecahedron which isn't really fleshed out until the later chapters. It starts with Fyodor Karamazov and his son Dmitri (the eldest brother) who are both smitten with Grushenka, the local HelloNurse. But in love with Dmitri is Katerina, an aristocrat who is smitten with him for some services he did for her in the past. In love with Katerina is Ivan, the middle Karamazov brother, but he maintains that he doesn't really love her. Grushenka herself plays with Fyodor's and Dmitri's affections, but really [[spoiler:she's been pining after Mussyalovich, a Polish gentleman who spurned her five years ago]]. Grushenka also shows some attraction for Alyosha, the youngest Karamazov brother, but his attentions are turned towards Liza, a young girl crippled by a fever at the outset of the novel. But towards the end Liza shows more attraction to [[spoiler:Ivan]] than anyone else.

* ''Literature/TheEssexSerpent'': To quote from one review, "there are enough love triangles in The Essex Serpent to confound Euclid himself." Cora Seaborne, an intriguing young widow, is the central point on this dodecahedron. Luke Garrett and Martha are Cora's close friends who both love her. Cora likes them a lot, especially Martha, but she doesn't love back either, and moreover, she's beyond happy to be single and free. She becomes strongly attracted to William Ransome who shares her feelings, but at the same time he still loves his wife Stella. Stella loves her husband a lot, but she's also glad that Will and Cora become so close and she feels no jealousy. George Spencer, a doctor who is Luke's particular friend, falls in love with Martha. Martha enjoys using Spencer's devotion to her for her cause, though it's implied she still loves Cora. Martha then gets together with Edward Burton. The book ends with Luke angry at Cora for refusing him, while Spencer is sad, heartbroken but understanding about Martha's decision. Will is with Stella [[spoiler:who is dying of tuberculosis]] and he still thinks of Cora. Cora sends Will a letter, trying to explain her conflicting feelings towards him.
