The set-up sees 13 suitors, all housed together, who compete for a moment of intimate connection, romance and, perhaps, true love, with the designated object of their affection. One by one, the suitors are eliminated until the heartthrob chooses the ideal man to sweep him off of his feet and commit to an exclusive relationship.
