The series follows a group of singles (called Islanders) living together in a luxurious tropical villa. The goal for the Islanders is to find a connection and win over the viewers watching at home. Couples face twists, re-couplings, and eliminations, and in the end, it's the audience who votes on who wins the show's $100,000 prize.

Part of "Love Island USA" is people coming together -- although not many fans could have predicted Carmen Kocourek and Connor Newsum ending up as a couple. Kocourek was first introduced to fans when she appeared on the show's fifth season, and she landed in fourth place alongside her partner, Kenzo Nudo.
