An Irresistible BachelorBy: J. R. Ward Art conservator Callie Burke's new assignment is restoring a masterpiece owned by ruthless, wealthy, and sexy politico Jack Walker.

舉例來說，同樣說：「這個是蛋」一句話，當鋼琴老師對著一個有天分的孩子這麼說時，他想表達的是：「他將是鋼琴界的明日之星」；當動物管理員搭著圓圓臉大猩猩的肩頭這麼說時，他要說的是：「這是隻名叫『蛋』的猩猩」；當媽媽餵生病小孩吃藥時這麼說，她心裡想的可能是：「為了騙他吃藥，所以撒了一個小謊」。語言的絃外之音，是不是很有趣？！因此，當一個人說「我是小孩」時，言下之意為何呢？可能是學生答不出老師的問題，就藉口說「我是小孩」，意味著：不會，不是他的錯；少年想出去玩，也可以藉口說「我是小孩」，意味著：我又不必工作！不玩做什麼呢？另外，當不同的賣場人員大喊：「買紅蘿蔔送白蘿蔔！」、「我賣的東西最新鮮！」、「買這個藥可以治百病喔！」不同的說法，竟然都是暗示、鼓勵顧客來買他的東西。諸如此類種種豐富、充滿機智又趣味性的說話方式，在五味太郎的《話中有話》中俯拾皆是！
