Russell Maxwell is a 36-year-old rodeo pickup man from Texas. He enters arenas on horseback to protect thrown riders and control bucking stock. Calm, reliable, and emotionally avoidant, he works a dangerous job for modest pay, lives alone, and never fully recovered from a twelve-year relationship that ended because he wouldn’t stop wrecking himself.
