Actors Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, known for their compelling performances in the series Heated Rivalry, are reuniting for a new project titled Ember & Ice. The audio romance series, announced by Quinn—the popular audio erotica platform—promises to offer an engaging narrative experience that has been teased on social media throughout the weekend.
In Ember & Ice, a three-part original series, Williams and Storrie portray Dane and Finn, two fae princes hailing from the rival kingdoms of Solari and Lunare. The project distinguishes itself by avoiding a self-insert character, allowing listeners to become intimate observers of the unfolding story. According to a release, the series invites listeners into a world rich with tension, longing, and intimacy, culminating in a narrative that emphasizes the theme of choosing love in defiance of societal expectations.
Caroline Spiegel, founder and CEO of Quinn, expressed her excitement about the project, stating, “Hudson and Connor have a really special chemistry, and we feel incredibly lucky to work with them. The way they connect with audiences and show up in the cultural conversation is exciting to watch.”
Williams and Storrie’s star power has surged in recent weeks following the success of Heated Rivalry, a queer romance series available on the Canadian streamer Crave and HBO Max in the United States. Created for television by Jacob Tierney, the series takes a deep dive into a fictional hockey universe and centers around the intense relationship between two rival players: Shane Hollander (Williams), representing the fictional Montreal Metros, and Ilya Rozanov (Storrie), from the Boston Raiders. The show has gained significant traction online since its premiere, elevating its popularity and boosting streams for the accompanying music. The finale of the first season aired on December 26, with a U.K. release scheduled for January 10.
Ember & Ice is part of a growing trend at Quinn, where prominent Hollywood figures lend their voices to original audio narratives, joining the ranks of stars like Andrew Scott, Katherine Moennig, and Chris Briney. The first two episodes of Ember & Ice are set to debut exclusively on Quinn on December 30, offering fans a fresh and intimate listening experience. This collaboration between Williams and Storrie not only showcases their on-screen chemistry but also highlights the ever-expanding landscape of audio storytelling.
