Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams attend the premiere of "Heated Rivalry" at TIFF Lightbox on Nov. 24, 2025, in Toronto, Ontario.

"Heated Rivalry" fans who couldn't get enough of the two leads' indisputable on-screen chemistry are in luck.

Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie will take their romantic magnetism on TV to the audio world in Quinn’s three-episode erotica series titled "Ember & Ice." After playing star-crossed pro hockey players in the hit Canadian series, the two will now voice fictional princes from the rival Solari and Lunare kingdoms.

Unlike much of Quinn's content, "Ember & Ice" will not feature an insert self-character and instead follow the story between Williams and Storrie's characters, Dane and Finn. The enemies-to-lovers story follows the two princes who are bonded by a forbidden affair that's lasted years, according to Quinn.

"I think there is something very interesting about exploring sensuality and erotica just with your voice,” Williams told Cosmopolitan.

Stars have breakout year with 'Heated Rivalry' success

The actor's fame is soaring following their roles as Ilya Rosanov (Storrie) and Shane Hollander (Williams) in the explicit romance series.

Since its Nov. 28 release, the show has risen to No. 1 on the HBO Max top 10 charts.

Season two is confirmed, creating material for more screaming reaction videos and meticulously edited videos to Taylor Swift songs on social media.

Series creator Jacob Tierney will helm the sophomore season for Crave, the Canadian streaming service owned by Bell Media. HBO Max will continue to license the series without producing.
