| Plot Summary of Fool Me Once |
"Toni and Blair had been friends once. Blair had trusted Toni to help him nail her lover, criminal Farrell Hagen but Toni had betrayed him. Her betrayal had nearly cost Blair his life and had caused the deaths of two of his friends. Toni arrives back in Blair's life under mysterious circumstances when she crashes her Porsche near his driveway. When she wakes after the accident she has no memory of her past except for the strange disconnected images of a murder scene that haunt her dreams.
Blair wants to take down Toni's lover Farrell Hagen, the man responsible for the deaths of his friends. To do this he needs information he believes Toni can give him once she regains her memory. Desperate to keep Toni safe until she can give him the information he needs Blair tells Toni they were long time friends and had planned to spend the Christmas holidays together. But the fraud he perpetrates takes on a life of its own and reality begins to pattern itself after his lie when this Toni is nothing like the Toni he knew before the accident. He finds himself emotionally and sexually attracted to her.
As they work together to try to piece together the meaning behind the disjointed scenes of a murder that haunt Toni's dreams the attraction between them flares. "
