I suggest these two:

1. Simulated Annealing: Theory and Applications (Mathematics and Its Applications)

by P.J. van Laarhoven (Author),‎ E.H. Aarts (Author)

2. Facts, Conjectures, and Improvements for Simulated Annealing

By Peter Salamon, Paolo Sibani, Richard Frost

I hope it helps

Best regards

Also, the next chapter:

Chapter The Theory and Practice of Simulated Annealing

Thank you Goutam and Rafael

This link has also simple explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing. This a also a book from SPRINGER http://www.springer.com/cda/content/document/cda_downloaddocument/9783319411910-c2.pdf?SGWID=0-0-45-1579890-p180080441

Thanks

Thank you Eric

This book is open access and it's good to read.
