Cresteds are great little geckos and hard to talk oneself out of. I'll also warn you they are addicting. There are a few good print an online resources out there.

If you are looking to eventually breed your geckos or want to get more of the Rhac species I would suggest the book "Rhacodactylus: A Complete Guide to their Selection and Care" by Philippe De Vosjoli, Allen Repashy, and Frank Fast. That is usually considered the "Rhac bible" and has lots of detailed info. It can be found online and from some people for about $40, a little expensive because it is out of print.

If you are looking for just a general care guide, and nothing too fancy about breeding or the other Rhacs, "Crested Geckos" by Philippe De Vosjoli is perfectly fine. It can be found at most reptile shops for about 5-$10.

Another great online resource is Allen Repashy's Reptile forums. It is open to all reptiles, but mostly ends up being people with geckos, and even moreso people with experience with Rhacs. It is also great because Allen Repashy is who makes the Crested Gecko Diet (CGD) and you can get updates on when the formula is being changed and how.

Hope some of these suggestions help! Good luck resisting a crestie now, lol!
