We ask Allah to bless you with a righteous wife. And know that among the reasons for a woman's righteousness and adherence to her religion is for her husband to be a good role model for her.

As for the books you can benefit from, they include: "Awdat al-Hijab" (The Return of the Hijab) by Dr. Muhammad Ismail al-Muqaddim, "Suwar min Hayat al-Sahabiyyat" (Scenes from the Lives of the Female Companions) by Dr. Muhammad Raafat al-Basha, and "al-Tarbiya al-Jihadiyya Inda al-Mar'a al-Muslima fi Sadr al-Islam" (Jihadi Education for Muslim Women in Early Islam) by Dr. Khalid Younis al-Khalidi.
