Luke Pell may be a man who's too good to be true, at least in The Bachelorette star JoJo Fletcher's eyes.

Luke, a 31-year-old war veteran from Burnet, TX, memorably pulled up to the Los Angeles mansion on Night 1 via unicorn, paying reference to JoJo's own entrance on Ben Higgins' season of The Bachelor.
On the season's firefighter-training Group Date, Luke came in second place behind real-life firefighter Grant Kemp. Luke's physical ability and determination really impressed JoJo.
The small-town country boy then charmed JoJo on their one-on-one date in Pennsylvania. She dug deep into his past, and everything Luke has accomplished really blew her away, especially when it comes to his years of service in the military. It also doesn't hurt that they have Texas roots in common.
Host Chris Harrison recently called Luke "a frontrunner," implying that fans will see much more of him in the coming weeks.
