Elizabeth asked this question about Jeremy Poldark (Poldark, #3):
Can someone please explain the (unexplained) shift in Ross and Demelza's relationship??? The author doesn't give any evidence for why and when this happens. And don't say it was the betrayal - I got that already, but they are strong together after that, so what happens?

First, Elizabeth not letting go of Ross throws off her marriage and contributes to Francis spinning out of control; then their marriage failing throws off Ross and Demelza's marriage as Elizabeth dangles her love to Ross. I'm sort of half joking here as I agree with what the others have written below (that it has to do with them needing to grow up and deal with Julia's death and learn how to communicate, etc) in terms of direct causes, but I actually am coming around to seeing just how destabilizing a force Elizabeth is in these first few books. I'm also totally biased!(less)
