The latest group of hopeful hotties and a few sexy surprises are ready to make waves and catch feelings on Bachelor in Paradise.

The cocktail party continues! As the rose ceremony approaches, the previously confident guys are realizing that holding the roses may not mean they have the advantage they expected. Once all is said and done, nine new couples begin a new day in the sun ready to move their relationships forward, but it wouldn’t be Paradise without a slew of new singles making their way to the beach! Best buds Aaron and James arrive ready to double-date their way to true love, and lovable hottie Rodney shows up with hearts in his eyes, putting the ladies’ jaws on the floor.

The beachgoers are settling in and sunblocking up, but it won’t be long before another bombshell hits the beach. Victoria F. has arrived and she’s ready to make waves! This week, the men hold the roses so the pressure is on for the ladies to secure their partners, but when a mysterious suitcase appears, it seems like there may be even more competition than they anticipated. All that, plus a steamy love triangle emerges, an ultimatum is handed out and one man’s indecision sets off a Shakespearian chain reaction.

After Teddi’s exit sends shockwaves through the beach, a flock of single ladies races to make the first move on the hottest new arrival, Rodney; but Genevieve has eyes for another new guy, which sends her existing relationship into rocky waters. Meanwhile, it’s nothing but smooth sailing for lovebirds Serene and Brandon, whose relationship only grows after they receive a much-anticipated date card. Later, Ashley and Jared attempt to turn up the heat in their own romance, but will their night end with a bang?

After a season full of twists, turns and romance like never before, it all comes down to this. With only one rose ceremony standing between the eight remaining couples (and one single gal) and the end of paradise, Jesse Palmer drops an unexpected bombshell that will have everyone questioning where they stand. Later, once the roses have been handed out, the remaining couples have an important decision to make—will they stay until the end in hopes of an engagement, or will they leave and pursue a relationship away from the sands of Mexico? For some, it won’t be an easy choice.
