"History rapidly turns into myth, and perhaps one of the pleasures of reading an historical novel is to discover the truth behind the myth."

The Author

Hi, I'm N.S. Elizabeth

N.S. Elizabeth is the author of The Forbidden Affairs of Buckingham Palace and 100 Nights in Beirut. After growing up in the desert-city of Dubai and the enchanting "Paris of the Middle East", she now lives in Canada with her husband and an owl sculpture named Winky.

When she's not crafting tales of absurdity, love, and the occasional secret affair, she sips tea from porcelain cups — like the posh queen she believes herself to be.

About N.S. Elizabeth

N.S. Elizabeth cartoon character
Welcome, dear reader

If you've found yourself on this side of the Internet — you're in for a treat.

My name is N.S. Elizabeth (or my pen name, at least).

I knew at the age of 14 that I wanted to be an author.

Of course, early on — at the age of 8, when I first discovered Steve Irwin, the great Australian zookeeper — I wanted to be an adventurer.

But life is funny that way, and I found that being an author is a lot less of a linear path. An adventure in and of itself.

So I stuck to it. Clinging to it in the hopes it would not just ease my mind but also add a much-needed source of income.

Fortunately for me, I've managed to work my way up to becoming a 2x NYT Worstselling Author in 2018 AND 2025.

And since then I've been working my way up the ranks — even hurling a 4-year scholarship to a Top Canadian university into the sea, just to pursue this.

WHY did I do all this? Well, it's easy.

I am on the search for truth.

I want to understand this world, the people in it, and myself. And writing is one way to unearth universal truths in a way that is less pointed than going to therapy and making yourself feel awful for $150/hr.

Me Faking Writing illustration

And so I write, hoping one day to garner the attention of the wage-slave masses whom I have so much in common with (especially the slave part).

The Forbidden Affairs of Buckingham Palace

Mary, a seventeen-year-old living in a crime-ridden neighbourhood in London with her mum, is about to embark on the financially efficient journey that is not going to college.

Considering Mary and her mum are down to their last penny and nobody could give a rat's tail about their dire circumstances, matters had to be taken into God's hands. While Mary's out for a breath of fresh air one heaven-sent morning, a newspaper smacks her straight in the face with a headline that would change the course of her life forever:

'QUEEN CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR PERSONAL MAID. WILL PAY £25,000 A YEAR.'

Join Mary as she sets out on an adventure in Buckingham Palace, forging unlikely bonds, unravelling secrets, and witnessing firsthand the most absurd leisure activities of the longest-living monarch in the world. Perfect for lovers of irreverent British humour with a royal twist.

100 Nights in Beirut

Echoes of 1982

Beirut, 1982. Adam, a young police officer stationed in West Beirut remembers nothing of his childhood. After a traumatic head injury from a bomb, he grew up in the Islamic Orphanage, a stranger to himself in every way that mattered.

As talks of war with Israel run rampant on every street corner, he meets a woman at a party who brings old feelings to the surface, triggering nightmares of people he doesn't know and questions about his past he can no longer ignore.

With bombs beginning to fall across the city and a three-pronged Israeli invasion closing in from the South, Adam sets out to uncover the truth about his family, only to stumble upon The White Doves, an all-female resistance group tied to the woman he can't forget, and a grieving figure who has watched over him for years, willing to do anything to keep the truth buried, even if it means losing him forever.

Adam is left with two choices: Flee the oncoming invasion to save his own life or risk everything to finally learn who he is before his history and the people in it are erased for good.
