As you want to model game theoretic interactions in a network, I would strongly recommend Social and Economic Networks, by Mathew Jackson. It might not exactly be a beginner's book but it has the advantage of addressing both topics in conjunction (Jackson now studies networks but is also a game theorist).

Another advantage is that there is a coursera MOOC linked to the book : https://www.coursera.org/course/networksonline.
