Narrative:

I was sic on a charter from bdr to bos. After landing on runway 4R, the PIC instructed me he was exiting the runway on taxiway Y. Tower instructed us, after exiting on taxiway Y, to contact ground. After clearing runway 4R, I called ground, advised them we were clear of runway 4R on taxiway Y. Ground instructed us to taxi on taxiway Y and hold short of runway 33R. I read back instructions to ground control and to the PIC. PIC then read back taxi instructions to me. Then ground control cleared us to join runway 33R and hold short of runway 4L. I read back clearance to ground control and to the PIC. The PIC then read back taxi instructions to me (confirmation). As we were taxiing on runway 33R coming up to runway 4L, the PIC started to apply the brakes and the plane began to slow down. I glanced down at the airport diagram to confirm our position and the possible route to the FBO on the field. Just as I looked up, the PIC was coming up to runway 4L and had not come to a full stop. Just as I started to tell the PIC to stop, ground control instructed us to 'stop, hold position, stop right there.' the PIC applied the brakes and we stopped with our nose over the hold short line. I asked what the problem was with the PIC and he said he was confused where he was and thought we were still on taxiway Y, even after confirming with me our taxi instructions. After escorting our passenger to the FBO, I went over instructions from ground control from start to finish to clear up the PIC's confusion. Inside the FBO the PIC had a telephone call from tower control waiting for him and I wasn't given details of the conversation.
