Published: Dec 30 2025

The stars of the highly anticipated series, Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, are reuniting once again for a new project that promises to ignite passions anew. The actors have been confirmed to star in a new audio romance series titled "Ember & Ice," a three-part original series for Quinn, the audio erotica platform that announced the exciting news on Monday.

Throughout the weekend, Quinn has been teasing the project on social media, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the release of "Ember & Ice." In this series, Williams and Storrie play the roles of Dane and Finn, two fae princes from the rival Solari and Lunare kingdoms. Unlike some Quinn stories, this series does not feature a self-insert character.

The story's summary promises to transport listeners deep into the world of the story, positioning them as intimate observers of every moment of tension, longing, and intimacy between Dane and Finn. It's ultimately about "choosing love in defiance of expectation."

"Hudson and Connor have a truly special chemistry, and we feel incredibly lucky to work with them," said Caroline Spiegel, founder and CEO of Quinn. "The way they connect with audiences and spark cultural conversations is truly exciting to witness."

Williams and Storrie have shot to stardom over the last month following the release of "Heated Rivalry," a queer romance series from Canadian streamer Crave that airs on HBO Max in the U.S. The show, created by Jacob Tierney, centers around a fictional hockey universe and focuses on two rival professional hockey players - Canada-born Shane Hollander (Williams) of the fictitious Montreal Metros and Russia-born Ilya Rozanov (Storrie) of the fictitious Boston Raiders - as they navigate a years-long secret fling.

The romance was already gaining traction online before its premiere, but it's become increasingly popular since its debut, even showing a meaningful bump in streams for the music featured on the show. The show's sixth episode, the last of its first season, aired on Crave and HBO on Dec. 26. It will premiere on Sky in the U.K. and Ireland on Jan. 10.

Williams and Storrie are the latest stars to narrate a Quinn original. The audio erotica app has a growing lineup of Hollywood figures who have lent their voices for the app's steamy stories, including Andrew Scott, Katherine Moennig, and Chris Briney.

"Ember & Ice" promises to be an unforgettable experience for fans of the duo. The first two episodes are set to premiere exclusively on Quinn on Dec. 30, igniting passions and igniting discussions in the hearts of audiences worldwide.
