Nick Viall is on a mission to prove that he can find love on The Bachelor in 2017 despite failing for four times. He was the runner-up on two seasons of The Bachelorette and failed to find a match on Season 3 of "Bachelor in Paradise." Here is a first look at who will be competing for Viall's final rose now that all the contestants have been revealed.

According to Heavy, the only suitor with previous ties to Viall is Elizabeth Sandoz. The rest of the ladies are completely new to the game. Sandoz first met and later hooked up with Viall at a wedding, according to Inquisitr.

Viall wanted all new women for his run on "The Bachelor," so it seems that Sandoz will probably be eliminated. Danielle Malty is the token suitor with a life tragedy. Malty's fiancé passed away after overdosing on drugs. She currently works with the modeling agency, AMAX.

Olivia Burnette hails from Alaska and comes from a rich family. Her father is the President of Alaska Textiles, and she works for VF Imagewear. Brunette has also worked as a bartender and in retail sales.

Raven Gates owns a boutique in Arkansas named Grey Suede. Gates went on a date with Viall and was introduced to his family.

Danielle Lo also went on a date with Viall but seems more interested in promoting her brand than finding love.

From a handful of models, Whitney Fransway is a model in Los Angeles who works as a receptionist on the side. Fransway is friends with Bachelor alum Lucy Aragon. Whitney teaches dance for Arthur Murray, and she was also one of the suitors who went to the Backstreet Boys concert with Viall.

Floridian Lauren Hussey is more Viall’s age at 30-years-old. She works at a shelter for abused women and children and is well educated.

While some already went on a date with Viall, Rachel Lindsay took home his first impression rose. Lindsay works as an attorney; she is 31-years-old, and she is the first black contestant to win a first impression rose. After Viall gave her the first rose, it was reported they went on a solo date in New Orleans and were spotted getting extra cozy.

Filming for the reality show is still underway with the crew headed for the Bahamas after they wrap things up in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. The source added that filming would end in November.
