Oh, man. This is just pitch-perfect in every way, and nothing is even remotely a stretch. Jake's quiet strength, Ella's badassness, Taggart being a deadpan snarker even on his deathbed... and so hot too.
I was actually convinced, prior to seeing the film, that Taggart would wind up dead so Jake could be Sheriff. But this is a much better way to do it, with him growing as a person and taking on a new identity.

Bravo. Hope you write more.
