Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov may have concluded their journey in “Heated Rivalry” Season 2, but fans can still enjoy a new immersive audio romance narrated by Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie. Titled “Ember & Ice,” this three-episode series follows the story of fae princes Dane and Finn from rival Solari and Lunare kingdoms. Set in a fantasy world filled with history, duty, and forbidden desire, the series explores the theme of choosing love in defiance of expectation, capturing every moment of tension, longing, and intimacy.
Quinn, the leading audio erotica platform, will exclusively release the first two episodes of “Ember & Ice” on Dec. 30. Caroline Spiegel, the founder and CEO of Quinn, expressed excitement about working with Hudson and Connor, praising their special chemistry and ability to connect with audiences.
Unlike his accent in “Heated Rivalry,” Connor Storrie will not use an accent in “Ember & Ice.” Quinn’s original stories typically feature the main character speaking directly to the reader, but this gay romance will not include a self-insert listener character.
Since 2022, Quinn Originals has collaborated with various well-known actors for storytelling, including Christopher Briney, Andrew Scott, Tom Blyth, and others. The platform offers a unique experience where narrators, known as “creators,” tell stories directly to the audience, placing the listener as the main character.
The release of “Ember & Ice” follows the success of the “Heated Rivalry” finale, which aired on Dec. 26. The Canadian series garnered praise from viewers and has been renewed for a second season. Casey Bloys, the president of programming at HBO, commended the show’s broader appeal and its portrayal of intense, yet reflective, sex scenes.
To complement the article, exclusive photos from “Ember & Ice” have been shared below, providing a glimpse into the captivating world of Dane and Finn’s romance. Fans can look forward to immersing themselves in this enchanting audio experience as they await the return of “Heated Rivalry” in 2027.
