Snow White
An apple, a sharp wit, and absolutely no patience for foolish questions.
An invitation to an entirely new chapter
Once upon a time.
After hours.
They survived enchanted forests, royal scandals and a remarkable number of questionable princes. Now six legendary women have discovered that a happy ending can be rewritten.
Six legends. Older, wiser, and entirely on their own terms.
Beyond the final page
A little discretion.
A great deal of character.
Fairy tales were very generous with happy endings. They were considerably less helpful with retirement plans.
When the castles grew quiet and younger performers inherited their famous roles, Snow White, Cinderella, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, Sleeping Beauty and the Goose Girl decided to take charge of their next chapter.
They founded Happily Ever After Hours — an exclusive, entirely fictional companionship agency where the women are no longer waiting to be chosen by princes, rescued by strangers or instructed how to behave.
“The original stories made us famous. This one belongs to us.”
The original leading ladies
Meet the legends
Six familiar names. Six wonderfully unfamiliar second acts. These women may have aged out of their original casting calls, but they have never been more interesting.

Cinderella
A glass slipper, a sophisticated evening, and a strict no-refunds-on-shoes policy.
Rapunzel · 48
Rapunzel
Legendary golden hair, excellent conversation, and one firm rule about ladders.
Rotkäppchen · 54
Little Red Riding Hood
Charming company, fearless humor, and very little tolerance for wolf costumes.
Dornröschen · 50
Sleeping Beauty
Enchanting manners, rose-petal elegance, and the possibility of a very long nap.
Die Gänsemagd · 47
The Goose Girl
A true princess, a remarkable sense of humor, and an understandable dislike of geese.
