I definitely think when I leave here,
I´m gonna leave with a lot more than what I came in with.

We´re gonna go home, and people gonna be like,
"What -- Why you guys glowing like that?"
SPARKLE: Right. - This is the groove.
We got our groove back.

STEPH: I need to -- I need to -- Ooh.

CRU: I´m super excited, ´cause it´s literally just us now.
There are no more competitors.
It´s Brooke and Cru,
and we get to go deeper into our relationship
and see where it goes.
I´m excited.
PEDRO: Brooke has been falling for Cru
since the very first night at the group photo.
Sometimes you get lucky
and find a soul that grooves with yours.
- ♫ And we float in a cloud of love ♫
♫ Take me where I´ve never been before, on a cloud ♫
BROOKE: Yesterday, Cru told my sister
that he´s falling in love with me.
It feels really, really good to find someone
that I feel safe with, and -- and, yeah, he´s --
He´s an amazing guy.
- ♫ And we float in a cloud of love ♫
BROOKE: But I am no longer going to be in a situation
where my time is wasted.
After losing my baby at five months pregnant
and searching for love in all the wrong places
today, I really need to make sure
that this romance is strong enough
to, like, go into our real worlds.
And that means, you know, getting married
and having a family,
just living that beautiful life that I so dearly want.
♫♫
Oh, my God. This is gorgeous.
- Oh, we got a new drink. Oh, my gosh.
- Ahh. Wow.
Can we talk about how cute you are in your little tiger...

And that we´re matching?
- Cheers.
Cheers to the bubbly.
- Cheers.
♫♫
- Ohh.
What the hell? How do people drink that?
- [ laughs ]
Um, I kind of wanted
to bring you out and,
you know, talk about
life outside of the Groove Hotel, and,
you know, seeing -- - Which is a big step.
- Mm-hmm.
´Cause this has been like a dream.
- You´re telling me. - It´s, like, so surreal.
Seeing you with my sister yesterday,
it just --
- She made it real.
Your sister was coming after me
with her questions. - I know.
So, we kind of have to figure out,
like, what´s coming next.
I -- You know, you live in another state.
- I live in Utah. You live in L.A.
And those are different states,
but they´re also one nine-hour drive away.
- Mm-hmm.
- But I can do tattoos anywhere,
and I´m kind of a free bird.
And I´ve allowed myself to be a free bird
so I can go wherever I want. - Okay.
- And so I can definitely come out to L.A. and --
I don´t even know what your lifestyle looks like
out there. Like -- - I know. That´s the thing.
I think the reason why it´s been so easy
is we´re in paradise.
We´re on a tropical island. We´re --
We´re at the Groove Hotel.
But life is hard sometimes.
You know, the anxiety kind of comes in,
just because I´m thinking far into the future.
- Futuristic, right.
- And it´s clear that there´s an age difference.
- 12 years. - You know, there are things
that I really want in my life,
and, you know, and that´s a family.
So is that something that you´re, like, ready for?
Are you ready to be a father?
♫♫
My fear with Cru is that, you know, he is younger than me.
So, you know, is he ready to start a family soon?
Because the things that I want are so precious to me,
and my life is precious.
And, you know, I can´t waste any more time.
- To be able to go outside of the hotel and, like,
start a family and do a whole life together?
Like, that´s a lot.
- That´s a lot.
♫♫
- Um...
♫♫
I would want that to be with an amazing woman,
and you are that.
♫♫
It sounds, like, cliche, but, like,
you honestly inspired me, like,
to be a better version of myself.
It, like, makes me want to be more of a man
to be able to take care of you. And I´m huge on family,
and I´ve always wanted to have one of my own.
That is what the next step is,
is to have a family and to be a dad and -- - Is it? For you?
- For me. Yeah.
We are on the same page.
- Love is a scary thing for me.
I´ve had a lot of disappointment in my life,
but I´m quieting those voices in my head.
And my heart is telling me that Cru came into my life
for a reason, and I trust his words.
- This has been great. - Yeah.
- It´s been like a little honeymoon phase, but
I´m done with the hotel.
It´s time to get to the real world and --
- So we have a lot
of planning to do, then.
- You´re good at planning, right?
- Not really.
[ both laugh ] We´re crazy.
But I love it. Honestly -- - Love makes you do crazy things, I guess.
- I guess it does.
Through this experience with you, you´ve made me feel so safe
and so loved.
So...
♫♫
You know, I am falling for you.
I´m falling in love with you.
- Brooke and Cru. - Brooke and Cru.
- Who would have thought? [ both laugh ]
Let´s kiss to that. Come here.

- ♫ Step out of the darkness and into the moment ♫
♫ Is this getting dangerous? Your love is contagious ♫
SPARKLE: Now, I initially came to the Groove Hotel for a reset,
and I had no idea that I would stumble upon
such a fine young man like Steven.
- ♫ Step out of the darkness and into the moment ♫
SPARKLE: Steven is so young that I never thought
that I would take him seriously
or have real feelings for him.
- ♫ Your love is contagious ♫
SPARKLE: But they´re developing more and more with each date.
Here, there´s no judgment.
I can lay in a pool with a younger guy,
and nobody will bat an eye.
But I don´t know if I can be like this in real life.
I have no idea if Steven and I are going to leave together,
or if we´re just going to enjoy the time we had.
♫♫
STEVEN: It feels good. Of all the 25-plus guys,
Sparkle chose me to go ahead and continue her journey with.
In this situation with Sparkle, age does not matter.
- Hi, Steven. - Oh! What´s up, Sparkle?
Because I feel like if you vibing with that person,
you like that person for who they are,
not because of how old they are.
I feel like she loves the fact that I´m a gentleman,
and she likes the fact that we´re letting things happen
naturally rather than things being forced.
- Sparkle has surprised everyone
with her relationship with Steven.
Especially herself.
But they´ve never kissed.
Will today be the day?
♫♫
STEVEN: Oh, my gosh. [ both laugh ]
SPARKLE: Are we off a cliff? STEVEN: We off a cliff.
- Oh, this is so romantic. - Beautiful.
- Oh, my God.
- This is beautiful.
- Wow.
- You know, I´ll say we have a toast to...
our future.
- Okay.
♫♫
- Ooh! Shots on shots.
This date right here with Sparkle is --
it´s going to solidify,
you know, our future outside the Groove Hotel.
You know, I really want to set things up so that
when we do leave here, everything will be smooth.
Possibly get the kiss today.
You know, you never know. But it´s nice outside.
The vibe is right. We´ll go for it.
So how you feeling? - Good.
- Honestly, I want to start off by saying
I´m grateful to be able
to come out here and share this experience with you.
I´m sad it´s coming to a end, but,
you know, it´s the real world.
I feel like we´ll just -- We´ll just keep going.
And the future, it´s -- it´s a bright future ahead of us.
- Right.
You know, it was unexpected.
I didn´t come here for the same reasons
Brooke and Steph came here. - Right.
- I was really not interested in finding love.
For me, I just wanted to, like, have fun.
- Mm-hmm. - I feel like we´ve been vibing,
and I feel like the more we hung around each other,
the easier it was.
- Right. That´s how I feel. - And the less weird it was.
I mean, not that it was really honestly ever weird.
I think we know what component was weird.
- Yeah, exactly.
- I think our dynamic was not weird.
- At all. It wasn´t weird at all.
- It was very natural.
And when you and I, like, connect,
and when we start, like, vibing,
honestly, I was shook.
And I feel like we have this same, like, energy.
- Absolutely. - You know I have
a youthful energy. - Mm-hmm.
- I feel like you´re mature, and I feel like
somewhere in the middle, we meet together,
and it makes sense.
- That´s how I feel. I feel the same way.
- Yeah? Really? - Mm-hmm.
We definitely, you know, have that in common,
for sure. - Yeah.
- And I didn´t even expect that
coming out here. I did not look for it.
Like I said, I was only coming out here for my mom
and make sure she found exactly what she was looking for,
because family is important to me.
- Are you sure you 22?
- I am. [ both laugh ]
I am. - Are you -- Are you sure?
I´m a old soul.
- Clearly. - That´s my answer to that.
SPARKLE: I like the fact that I can be myself with Steven,
and he showers me with attention and compliments.
I´m smitten like a kitten.
I feel it´s really easy for me to be myself around you.
- For real? - Yeah.
We just appreciate so much about each other
and -- Yeah.
- Gotta put that behind you. I know you can´t
move it out the way. - Yeah, it keeps blowing
in the wind. Yeah. - Gotta show that face.
Steven and I are getting closer and closer,
and we´re getting a little flirtier.

- How you feeling about this romantic scenery?
- Well, I´m feeling fine.

STEVEN: Bang. SPARKLE: Fine.
- You know I´m shy -- - You nervous.
Yeah, I´m about to say, you shy.
[ both laugh ]
- Sparkle.
It´s Pedro.
Go get your groove on.
♫♫
- Oh, my God. We just kissed.
The kiss was soft and sweet and gentle,
and it was respectful, just like Steven.
STEVEN: I´m very excited I finally got the kiss.
It felt like how a kiss should be,
especially with someone you actually care for.
And I would have never envisioned this.
Like, this is not in the pamphlet here at all.
Like, this is not what I expected.
So, it was perfect.
Let´s go. Let´s -- Hey, I´m hot.
- I´m hot, too.
- Yeah, let´s go hop in this ocean.
- Yeah.
Right now, I´m so excited and giddy because
I found a gem in Steven.
♫♫
Perhaps we´ll cherish all the fond memories we created here
and go our separate ways.
I have no idea where we go from here,
but I´m feeling on a high,
´cause I´ve having an amazing time in life right now.
- ♫ Alright ♫
STEVEN: Oh, shit!
Oh, shit!
SPARKLE: Shit!
[ both laugh ]

- ♫ How´s it gonna work in the real world? ♫
♫ Are you really who you say? ♫
- I came to the Groove Hotel to find myself again.
And while I found myself, I found somebody else.
- ♫ Dream girl, are we living in a dream world today? ♫
STEPH: Oww.
- Hey, you.
- Hi. - What´s up, baby?

and two steps back.

LEROY: It´s been a crazy journey for me and Steph.

But it´s just me and her now.
[ sighs ]
So glad you chose your boy.
- Were you surprised?
- I wasn´t surprised, but,
you know, it be a lot of distractions all the time.
- It´s a lot of distractions. - Lot of distractions,
but let´s just focus on us
and, you know, just having a good time.
- Mm-hmm. This is beautiful.
- Mm.
♫♫
Today, I´m going to let Leroy know
exactly how I feel about him.
I´m hoping that he and I could have
a real heart-to-heart,
and he can tell me
exactly where his feelings are,
and we can figure out if whether or not we´re on the same page.
- I´ll get something clean, you know.
Have you a seat.
So he better get his shit together. He better know what he´s talking about,
because I´m not tryna come out here and look crazy.
But I need to know what his true intentions are.
- How you feeling?
- I feel better now, yeah. - Feel better now?
- Yeah. Always feel better when you´re around.
- I appreciate you.
- Let´s make a toast.
- What you want make a toast to?
- Us.
- To us, baby. - Groove Hotel.
- To Groove Hotel. To us meeting.
- And new beginnings. - Mm-hmm.
I feel good, you know?
It´s -- It was a lot, a lot,
you know, all them dudes and stuff like that.
But at the end of the day, I found you, you know.
You chose me, you know what I´m saying?
Now we ready to ride out in the sunset.
- How can I not choose you? - You know what I´m saying?
I don´t know.
- So, that´s what I wanted to talk to you about.
Like, what are you thinking what happens?
Like, what´s -- what´s life after --
Like, have you thought about that?
- Yeah, I think about it all the time.
I just want to do, like, normal, long-distance stuff,
you know what I´m saying? Like, that´s all I got for it.
- Mm-hmm. - Like, that´s where I´m at with it.
- I´ll share something with you. - Yeah, go ahead, baby.
- Alright. Let me take a drink first,
because I´m mad nervous right now.
- Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
- Um...
- Uh-oh.
- I -- So,
let me -- I´ll give you, like, an example.
I´m sitting here trying to find the words
to tell him how I´m feeling.
So, I came. I started walking, right?
Doo, doo, doo, doo. Right?
And then I got to, like, this cliff, right?
And the cliff is the Groove Hotel, right?
Boom. So here is a place that I´ve never been before.
- Yeah, right there, right.
- So then you somehow came
on a boat. Like, you just came through,
like doo, doo, doo, doo, right?
- Mm-hmm.
- Um...
Like, you´re in the water
chilling, and I´m on this cliff like right here.
- Yeah.
- And I started falling. - Mm-hmm.
- And so -- - Into the boat,
not the water, right?
- Into the boat.
- [ laughing ]
- [ laughing ] Yo, I hate y´all.
- I´m sorry. Yo. - Yo, I hate you.
- I´m so sorry.
[ both laugh ]
- You nervous, right? - I´m not nervous!
- Yeah, you are. You just hit Mariah Carey notes.
- Well, that was funny.
[ both laugh ] - Stop laughing, yo.
- I swear to God. - ´Cause you gonna be laughing,
and I´m gonna -- You gonna make me laugh.
- Okay, baby. - I´m tryna take this --
- Okay, baby, I got you. Go ahead.
- [ clears throat ]
So, I don´t open up easily
because I´ve been hurt. And in relationships,
I give my all. - Mm.
- And it´s frightening because I feel very vulnerable.
I feel like, um,
I´ve never been in this position before, like, and it´s --
♫♫
Mm.
♫♫
Um...
And it´s overwhelming.
♫♫
Me telling him how I feel
and putting myself out there is a huge risk.
It could be a little, you know, intimidating and overwhelming.
I´m wearing my heart on my sleeve.
So hopefully he understands, and he doesn´t get scared away,
and, um, hopefully he feels the same.
♫♫
I´m falling for you.
And that´s so scary.
- I don´t know what "falling for you" and stuff --
Like, I -- Like, I don´t know what that means.
- What do you mean, you don´t know what that means?
-I don´t know what it means, and it´s just like
I´ve never -- I never been like this.
I never been in a situation like this.
- Mm-hmm.
- I´m falling for you, too, baby.
♫♫
- For real? - Yeah, baby. I want to --
I want you -- I want to catch you in the boat.
- [ laughs ]
- I want to be that man in that boat.
I want to drive that boat. - You are the boat.
- I´m the boat? [ laughs ]
I´m so happy. It´s like, wow.
Like, this is opening up another sea of emotions
that I never really tapped into.
I want to see her happy, and I want to make her happy.
And I see us both falling in love.
- Okay.
- Let´s go. - Let´s go.
Sharing my feelings with Leroy,
I feel like I made another breakthrough.
I know that we´re on the same page, you know,
and that´s a really great feeling.
I have a lot to think about, you know, when I leave.
I have a lot -- I mean, shit,
I have a lot to think about now before I leave, you know?
There´s a new Steph in town! Beware!

- I am all down for it.
Come here.
- ♫ Choose to love ♫
- Ready? Are you all packed?
- I´m checking out. It doesn´t matter. We can buy new stuff.
- Yeah, you´ll buy all new stuff.
- We´re out of here. Let´s go.
- We´ll just go shopping in L.A.
- You should go and check with Human Resources tomorrow.
- Why? - You have some paper--
some paperwork to fill out --
Oh, they´re coming. - Me?
♫♫
- Away we go.
- Don´t drop me. - We are out of here.
Oh, there´s Pedro and Miguel.
- Hi, guys!
Remember us? - So happy to see
you have your groove back.
- She does. - I found it.
- That´s great. They´re happy.
- Thank you, Pedro. We´ll miss you.
- Safe travels.
CRU: Thank you!
- ♫ Rich with love ♫
- I am leaving in love with Brooke. It is crazy.
She is literally one of the most amazing people I´ve ever met.
It´s our true love story,
and the fact that it happened in the Groove Hotel,
I´m beyond ecstatic.
- This has been like a dream.
I surrendered and allowed love to come in.
Thank you, Groove Hotel.
- ♫ I´m rich with love ♫
♫♫
STEVEN: You know, Sparkle impresses me
every day I see her.
I´ve connected with her so deeply.
My entire goal is to leave here with her.
I´m ready to just see where the future takes us.
But I´m 22 years old, and Sparkle is 42 years old.
And at the end of the day, it´s Sparkle´s choice.
And she´s gonna make that decision
based off of how she feels.
♫♫
SPARKLE: I came to the Groove Hotel to have fun
and just let go of my inhibitions and enjoy life.
Little did I know that I would meet Steven.
The feelings for Steven definitely caught me by surprise
because I didn´t expect him to be so mature and genuine.
Steven allows me to be my fun self,
and that´s what I came here for.
- How you doing? - Mr. Steven?
- Mm-hmm? - It´s time for checkout.
- Let´s do it. - Will you follow me, please?
SPARKLE: Even though Steven and I
have a lot of fun together,
I don´t know if this could really work
outside of the Groove Hotel.
♫♫
- Hey, hey, hey.
- Hey. - Hey, Sparkle.
- How are you? - I´m good. How are you?
- I´m good. It´s good to see you.
- It´s good to see you, as well.
- Mm, you smell good.
- Thank you. You smell good, too.
And you look good with the orange today.
- [ sighs ] How you feeling today?
- I got a lot of emotions running through me right now.
Since the first time I saw you, I was like, "Okay,
that´s someone who I want to pursue for real."
Very beautiful, very intelligent.
Your energy is very vibrant, and the fact
that I was able to come out here and find that genuinity
in someone like you is amazing.
There´s no age difference between us
is what it feels like.
How about you?
- Um...
Before I came here, life was a lot different for me.
- Mm. - I started out as
a young wife and young mother,
so I definitely lost focus and lost sight of myself.
- Right. - And my initial reason
for coming here was just to reset and to have fun.
I´ve done that and more, ´cause I met you.
You´ve been very sweet
and very respectful. - Thank you.
- And you have really just, like,
opened up a fresh world to me of fun and excitement.
♫♫
And, um...
♫♫
The way that you bring out my fun and youthful side...
♫♫
...I want to keep that going.
- Absolutely. - Outside of the Groove Hotel.
- Of course.
Well, you already knew my answer coming here.
I´m really looking forward to what future awaits for us.
I feel like my future with Sparkle is bright.
First stop?
SPARKLE: Miami. - Yes, sir. You know the deal.
Sparkle came into the Groove Hotel
to have fun and have that good time.
And I feel like she found it within me.
So I´m ready to see where the wind takes me and Sparkle.
You know, I´m ready to just go and don´t look back.
Alright.
- Oh.
SPARKLE: I´m honestly so happy that I made the decision
to come to the Groove Hotel.
Steven was a bonus. - Pedro. Miguel.
♫♫
SPARKLE: And I´m still besties with his mom.
- [ laughs ]
- Thank you. I love you. - I love you more.
SPARKLE: Women should be able to date whomever they want.
♫♫
STEPH: I love you, son. - Love you, too.
SPARKLE: I´ve never been concerned
about what others think of me,
so I´m going to do whatever makes me happy.
♫♫
STEPH: My son is a grown man, and I want him to have fun.
And if he´s feeling Sparkle,
you know, and they have a good time, then so be it.
You know, the possibilities are endless.
And that´s what we came to the Groove Hotel for.
♫♫
SPARKLE: What´s next for Steven and I?
I don´t know. I´ve checked out,
but I´ve definitely checked in with myself.
- He´s only 22.
♫♫
STEPH: I definitely feel like I´ve gotten my groove back.
And I don´t necessarily mean with Leroy.
I feel that I´ve gotten back into myself.
You know, when you have a child,
their needs come first before yours,
so you put yourself on the back burner.
I know that Steven is good.
Like, I´m feeling some type of way,
because he is a grown man.
But I don´t know how to be Steph, just Steph.
I know how to be Steven´s mom, Steph.
So it´s like, alright, well, what does this new Steph like?
What does this new Steph want to do?
´Cause things aren´t the same anymore.
And I feel like Leroy has helped awaken something
that was probably sleeping for a very long time.
- ♫ I´m gonna push higher ♫
♫ I´m gonna push ♫
- Mr. Leroy? It´s time for checkout.
Will you follow me, please?
- Yes, sir.
STEPH: It´s been a really difficult decision to make.
But I had to go with my gut on this one,
and I have to make the choice that is best for me.
♫♫
- Hey.
There goes my boo.
How you doing?
♫♫
- Better now. - Yeah.
You´re doing great. You look real sexy.
- How are you today? - I´m feeling good.
Been thinking about us knowing that this is coming to a end.
And, um, want you to be my boo outside of the Groove Hotel.
I put everything out there for you
in the sense of letting you know how I feel about you.
I care about you, you know, so,
I gotta do my usual.
STEPH: Thank you.
The reason why I came to the Groove Hotel
was because I wanted to come have fun, like yourself.
And in coming here, I found you.
Here you come with your smile
- Yeah, I try. - And your lashes.
- I try. - And your dimples.
- I try. - And you make me laugh.
And I started to develop real feelings for you.
Last night, I didn´t sleep.
I was up all night. I was pacing back and forth,
back and forth, just trying to, like, figure certain things out.
I´ve been through a lot.
- Mm-hmm.
- Um, this is the hardest thing ever, yo. Like,
I´ve been through so much.
And for so long and for so many years,
I´ve always just put everybody first.
I´ve always thought about everybody else, right?
And in relationships, you know, you put the other person first,
and then you neglect yourself.
You have helped me find myself in a very scary place.
♫♫
- Mm. - Um...
I´ve been through so much,
I feel like I have been neglecting myself
for so long. - Yeah.
♫♫
- Five months ago, after my surgery,
I was in such a dark place.
♫♫
And I came here...
...´cause I wanted to find myself again.
♫♫
And then I met you.
And I´m so grateful for you always.
- I´m grateful for you, too.
♫♫
- But I can´t leave the hotel with you.
- [ humming ]
Yeah, I mean, you know --
[ clicks tongue ]
You know, damn.
♫♫
- I have to leave by myself.
It´s impossible for me to be
the woman that you deserve right now
when I´m not even fully the woman that I deserve right now.
♫♫
What I feel about you is so real.
But I got to choose me. - Mm-hmm.
- And when I leave here, I´m not leaving alone.
I´m leaving with myself. - Mm-hmm.
- And it´s been a long time since I´ve chosen myself.
♫♫
I can´t help but get emotional,
because Leroy makes me very, very happy.
♫♫
But even though I like Leroy, I love me more.
♫♫
I have to continue finding myself
and building myself and getting stronger.
I have to continue my journey.
- Yeah. Well, damn.
You know what I´m saying?
♫♫
This upsets me.
But, you know, I do understand
you are on a self-discovery journey.
So, you know, I have to respect your wishes
and where you are in your life,
because you have been through a lot.
And I want the best for you.
And it is what it is.
I didn´t see this coming, and it´s upsetting because,
like, the things we´ve been talking about,
you would think that we -- you know, we like each other.
- Can I have a hug?
♫♫
LEROY: It definitely sucks
that I´m going to leave the Groove Hotel
without everything that I thought we had.
Oh.
♫♫
But obviously, it wasn´t strong enough.
Oh [bleep]
And she obviously wants to do this by herself.
♫♫
- Thank you for your visit.
And safe travels, sir.
- Thank you.
It´s sad. I want her to be happy,
and I understand she´s been through a lot.
You know, I´m happy I got to spend time with her,
enjoy her, and be in her presence.
♫♫
STEPH: I´m really, really sad to leave Leroy.
He´s been a huge part of my journey here,
you know, to finding myself and finding love.
I feel like I´ve come such a long way
since I checked into the Groove Hotel.
It´s not always comfortable. It doesn´t always feel good.
But what does feel good is when you´ve achieved growth,
and you´ve achieved changes, and you see the changes,
and you can feel the changes.
[ crying ] I haven´t felt this stuff in a really long time.
I came to the Groove Hotel,
and I got my groove back.
You can´t put a price on that.
♫♫
I learned that we want someone to love us
and to give us this love
when in actuality, it starts from yourself.
And so now that I am loving myself,
I´ve opened up a new chapter.
- You know, we are so happy that you came to the Groove Hotel.
- Thank you so much, Pedro.
For the first time, I put myself first,
and I´m so proud of myself for that.
It was exactly what I needed.
♫♫
I´m really excited to continue to grow
and to become the best woman that I could possibly be.
- Bon voyage.
♫♫
We made it, man. Really, we made it.
I´m so [bleep] proud, man.
[ sniffles ]
People come to the Groove Hotel to gain back their groove.
Be careful. No, no, no, no, no, no. Derecha.
And that´s what makes this place so magical,
because our goal is to go way above their expectations.
But you don´t need magic to find your groove.
[ speaks Spanish ]
Y seis y siete y abajo.
[ speaks Spanish ]
[ laughs ]
- No?
All you need is an open heart.
- It doesn´t work. [ both laughing ]
- Miguel, por favor. Por favor, Miguel.
Go find your groove.
♫♫
- Three different women with three very different journeys
came here to the Groove Hotel looking for something.
These women open themselves up to dating younger men,
and each found something very special.
Brooke found love, Sparkle found fun,
and Steph found herself.
They each came here hoping to explore
a new side of themselves,
to grow, to learn,
to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
They came here to get back in the groove,
and it looks like they did.
