Action points provide characters with the means to affect game play in significant ways. A character always has a limited amount of action points, and while the character replenishes this supply with every new level he or she attains, the character must use them wisely.
Emphasis mine. They do indeed come back every level.

They don't "come back" in that manner.
You gain a certain number per level.
Action Points that are spent are gone.
You simply gain more every level.
For example...
Jason has 18 Action Points.
After a particularly rough session where he uses 9 Action Points, he has 9 left.
When he levels up, next, he gains 12 Action Points (just a number... it's based on class and level). His total number of Action Points is then 21, not 30, as the ones he used are not REPLENISHED, per se, he just gains new ones.
Simple enough?
Every payday, the money you spent isn't "replenished", you just get more.
Same concept.
