A simple mission turned deadly.
Nineteen-year-old vampire Dawn has led a sheltered life within the confines of her father’s presidential headquarters. Upon being sent on a mission to revamp four goofy misfits into guardians of a peaceful little town of Angel Creek, Dawn believes that all her dreams have finally come true. What starts off as a simple task, turns into something unexpected, changing Dawn’s life forever and leading the action-loving, thrill-seeking vampire teen on a path of mystery, danger and intrigue.
When a human girl is kidnapped by a group of rogue vamps, Dawn discovers that there is more going on in Angel Creek than meets the eye. And it all connects to Ethan, the cute newcomer who seems too perfect to be true, Sebastian, the mysterious vampire with a turbulent past, and even Dawn herself. Dawn must not only succeed in revamping the troubled recruits, but must also prevent the vampire race from being overtaken by a malevolent villain who has a strange and obsessive fascination with her. As threat escalates, romance blooms, and ghosts from her past begin to surface, Dawn is sure of only one thing: her life will never be the same.

Revamped is an interesting story about Dawn. Dawn is a vampire. But in the world that Ada Adams created there are two types of vampire; the Made and the Born. The Born are very few. The Made are very popular and there are losts of them around the world. Dawn is a Born. And she trained since she was a baby to combat and fight. She is 19 years old now, and she is sent to her first mission ever. The one that she has dreamt about forever.
In world, that Ada has build, the vampires are all the sorts of celerbities. Every vampire on earth wants to be a celebrity. There are tons on reality shows, movies,.. And people are so shallow. I didn't like it. They are so superficial, and it has bothered me a lot. I mean, in today society I have a strong feeling that people are too shallow, and hence, I really don't want to read this in books, too. Reality is sad enough.
Dawn. I really liked Dawn! She is strong, she does what it's right and she is a total badass ;) All she wants from life is, for her father to be proud of her. She is very mature for her age. When she moves to Angel Crack for her mission she is faced with troubles, where she really needs to put all her training and studying into practice. She is so capable and not willing to give up at any costs.
Overall, Revamped was a good story. I really liked Dawn. The plot of the story was good, tought there were some things, I wish were more explained and more deep. About the action – there was a lot of it in the book, but I wanted more details about the fights. I don't know, everything has seemed somehow too easy. And the world vampire society really wasn't of my liking. And I wished there was more romance in the book.
