Love Island is coming to the U.S. this summer, and 11 singles are hoping to find their perfect matches in a villa in Fiji.

In the CBS version of the international reality sensation, every few days, the Islanders must couple up, and those who don’t have a partner may be dumped from the island. The challenges the Islanders will face include new arrivals and dramatic twists. They must also win the hearts of viewers, who will have the chance to shape events on screen and ultimately crown one lucky couple the winner, who will then have the chance to walk away with love and a cash prize.

Viewers can also check out the Love Island app for around the clock exclusive content, messages, and gossip from inside the Villa. Users can say who’s hot and who’s not and stir things up by deciding who stays and who leaves.

The series is hosted by Arielle Vandenberg. Following the 90-minute series premiere on Tuesday, July 9, one-hour episodes will continue every weeknight through Wednesday, August 7.
