At the same time, a bullmastiff named Beast shows up with instructions from Marty to take care of him. Can Cate handle this 120-pound bundle of joy who wants to devour everything in sight? Ex-cop Kellen McBride has decided to make Cate s bar his nightly hang-out. But is he just there for the beer? Or does he have an ulterior motive for getting close to Cate?
