Michael Horton, People and Place: A Covenant Ecclesiology is decent, but I diverge from him on a number of points.
Ligonier has a list of books, as well, but I haven't read some of these, so I won't be helpful on the ones not mentioned here.
Also pick up any systematic theology like Berhof, Bavinck, Calvin, etc. They've got sections on Ecclesiology (Book 4 for Calvin).
Christian Theology by Millard Erickson would have a baptistic view of ecclesiology. Charles Hodges systematic theology would be reformed and probably more presbyterian. The book I used in Bible college is the one by Everett Fergeson The Church of Christ. Lot's of scripture. Edmund Clowney's book The Church From the Contours of Christian Theology series would be worth looking at too. Let us know how it goes.
