In an attempt to solve the mystery of her deceased mother’s life, Jessica Barraco retraces her mother's steps nearly forty years earlier—and finds herself along the way.
A decade after twelve-year-old Jessica loses her mother, Dianne, to cancer complications, she finds herself curious about Dianne's mysterious youth. Armed with a journalism degree, Jessica sets out on a quest to find two of Dianne's former lovers, an old ballroom dance partner and a Vietnam war hero, along with anyone else who can tell her about Dianne. The Butterfly Groove features Jessica's journalistic approach complemented by reimagined portions of Dianne's life. Part mystery, part coming-of-age story across decades, this memoir is a heartwarming exploration of how our pasts tell our truths, and how love survives us all.

Journalist by heart, marketing professional by day, and writer by moonlight, Jessica Barraco is a graduate of the University of Colorado, Boulder’s School of Journalism. She has contributed for EliteDaily, ModernLoss, 944 magazine, The Denver Post and more. She spent three years working at HarperCollins Publishers' headquarters, working on both nonfiction and fiction books. The Butterfly Groove, Barraco's debut investigative memoir, tells the story and research behind her late mother's mysteries and hidden love affairs from her past. Barraco currently resides in her home state of California.
