Here is the best answer for your question,

We know that half filled and full filled orbitals are stable. Thus, B will be stable removing an electron. ... The electrons in the 2s orbital are already paired and hence it is quite a stable configuration for the beryllium atom. Hence the first ionization enthalpy of beryllium is higher than that for boron.

Hope this answer helps.
