• Mere Christianity by C.S . Lewis - Not everything in this book is in line with Mormon doctrine, but Chapter 5: Sexual Morality and Chapter 6: Christian Marriage give some good arguments for why chastity is such an important virtue.
• And They Were Not Ashamed by Laura M. Brotherson - Written by an LDS therapist, this book discusses strengthening marriage, problems couples might face, and how to teach children about intimacy from a Gospel perspective as well as a psychological perspective.
