For her role opposite Noah Bean in the independent feature The Pill, Boston garnered rave reviews on the festival circuit and earned accolades including the Best Actress Award from the San Diego Film Festival,[6] the Stargazer Award from the Gen Art Film Festival,[7] and the Emerging Artist Award from the Big Apple Film Festival.[8]

Boston was the executive producer for the independent film Black Marigolds, and also starred in the film, which reunited her with her costar from The Pill, Noah Bean.[9] The film was shot over a two-week span in the Palomar Mountain Range of Southern California.

In 2012, Boston starred in the feature film It's a Disaster alongside Julia Stiles and America Ferrera.[10] Also in 2012, Boston would then be cast as one of the leads in the Lifetime fantasy-drama series Witches of East End, based on a novel of the same name by Melissa de la Cruz, opposite Julia Ormond, Jenna Dewan and Mädchen Amick.[11][12][13] The show debuted on October 6, 2013.[14][15]

During her tenure on Witches of East End, she was cast in the original independent romantic comedy A Ring by Spring, a Hallmark original film, directed by Kristoffer Tabori.[16] Shortly thereafter she was cast in Hallmark Movies & Mysteries' original telefilm A Gift of Miracles, opposite Jesse Moss and Rita Moreno.[17]

Shortly after Lifetime's cancellation of Witches of East End, Boston signed on to Hallmark Channel's original telefim, Ice Sculpture Christmas, a part of Hallmark's 2015 Countdown to Christmas event.[18][19] In April 2016, Boston completed work on Hallmark Channel's original telefilm Stop the Wedding, co-starring Niall Matter, Alan Thicke, Lini Evans and Teryl Rothery.[20][21] At the end of 2016, Boston announced a partnership with Hallmark and author de la Cruz on a new original movie, Christmas in Angel Falls, about an angel who falls in love during the Christmas season.[22]

Between 2018 and 2019, Boston would sign on to her first theatrical leading role in six years, in the film I Hate Kids opposite Tom Everett Scott.[23] In November 2018, Boston would guest on the ABC drama The Good Doctor as Claire's college roommate and friend, Kayla, who is seeking treatment for her cancer.[24]
