Books about childhood sexual abuse?

I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse from the age of three to eight. I'm learning to overcome it but I've seen how it has effected my past relationships. I was in a very abusive relationship from the age of 18 to almost 21. I left him finally when he beat me so bad I ended up in a three day coma. But I was so down my on myself that I jumped into a new relationship. This man was constantly putting me down and cheating on me but I thought I deserved it so I married him. One day I had enough and finally left him. We were separated for five months then we got divorced. Shortly after the divorce I started dating a friend. Everyone who knows me sees how he's right for me. Finally the guy I truly deserve has come into my life. But sadly because of the abuse I've suffered it starts to show in our relationship. I don't want to push my boyfriend away but he doesn't understand what I've been through. So I'm trying to find a book to give to him that may help him see and have better understanding as I let go completely of my past. Any advice I'll greatly appreciate.
