I would recommend The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work, by John Gottman. It's a good general "manual" for making relationships last. I don't think it addresses particular scenarios, but it's applicable to all sorts of situations.

A male TFPer has this recommendation:

When I got together with my now wife, we went through all sorts of strife with my ex, especially on matters surrounding her and my daughter.

One book that we found very helpful was "Mom's House, Dad's House" by Isolina Ricci

Hope it helps.
