Watch Vinny Guadagnino Take the 'All Star Shore' Reins — and Return to the Smush Room (Exclusive)

"Never fall in love [on] day one at the shore," Vinny warns with a smile in PEOPLE's exclusive first look at 'All Star Shore' season 2

With things getting hot and heavy, can Vinny Guadagnino keep his eye on the prize?

In PEOPLE's exclusive first look at All Star Shore season 2, the 35-year-old "Keto Guido" returns to the Shore to redeem himself as he competes with 11 other contestants for a grand prize.

"Vinny smushed Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, and took a Double Shot at Love but can the 'Keto Guido' handle the ultimate shore party?” a voiceover asks while a shot of Vinny thrusting a beach ball is shown.

The next clip features the cast raising a glass. "This is where the shore master comes into play," Vinny says slyly.

The series — which will be narrated by Jersey Shore's Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi — will bring together contestants from Jersey Shore, Geordie Shore, Germany Shore, Acapulco Shore, Rio Shore, F Boy Island and Too Hot To Handle.

Besides Vinny, the all-star cast includes: Melinda Melrose, Tamaris Sepulveda, Hati Garderobe, Isa Castro, Marnie Simpson, Patryk Spiker, Xavier Ulibarri, Chantelle Connelly, Chase Demoor, Fabio De Pasqual and Gui Evaristo.

According to a press release, the reality television fan favorites will compete in a variety of "epic party-style challenges for a chance to win $150,000 and global bragging rights."

Despite his determination to win the game, there may be trouble brewing in paradise when Vinny takes a liking to more than one girl.

"I really do like Melinda," he says in a confessional, as the teaser transitions to a shot of him kissing Tamaris on a hammock.

This doesn’t go unnoticed by the Too Hot To Handle alum who watches the footage on a tablet in a different room. "Did Vinny just kiss her?" she asks.

Vinny then tells cameras, "It’s been a while since I’ve been in a smush room," as he's seen taking off a fellow contestant’s thigh-high leather boots, and making out with another woman in bed.

While Melinda may be slighted, this doesn’t keep her down for long as she confesses she’s "taken a liking to Fabio." The teaser features her cuddling with the Germany Shore star and flashes to a scene of her straddling her castmate while locking lips.

"Never fall in love [on] day one at the shore," Vinny warns in a conversation with cameras. "I’m trying to think strategically."

In a final moment, Vinny quips: "I've got a PhD. Pretty huge d---."
