Synopsis

Every day, Virgil Kidder takes deadly risks protecting riders from raging bulls. And every night, he tries to forget his troubled past. But his past catches up to him when he returns to Waco, Texas to work for his friend Brownie. Kidder runs into the two people he would most like to avoid: his old girlfriend Kaitlin and a former bullrider who blames his rodeo accident on Kidder and now seeks revenge. With no place to run, Virgil has to now face his past and clear his name if there is to be any future.
