JAKE PAVELKA GETS A SECOND CHANCE AT LOVE IN “THE BACHELOR: ON THE WINGS OF LOVE,”

ABC’S HIT ROMANCE REALITY SERIES PREMIERES MONDAY, JANUARY 4, 2010

Jake Pavelka is out to prove that nice guys don’t always finish last in love. The handsome commercial pilot from Dallas—and America’s most hopeful romantic—begins his own bid for true love, choosing from among 25 bachelorettes, when “The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love” premieres MONDAY, JANUARY 4, 2010 (8:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Ever since Jake, 31, shared a magical one-on-one date with Bachelorette Jillian Harris to see Martina McBride, millions of women have had their “Top Gun” fantasies about him. A fan favorite for his reputation as an honest guy with an open heart – not to mention his good looks -- viewers were stunned when Jillian rejected Jake right before the hometown dates on last season’s “The Bachelorette.” But women were drawn to him even more when Jake returned of his own accord in the next episode to protect Jillian from men who were not there for the right reasons. Jake – who already knew Jillian would not take him back -- freely shared and showed his emotions.
