In 2008 she won ALMA Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for role in Eli Stone.[1] The series was cancelled after two seasons in 2009.[8]
Gonzalo had been cast as the lead in the NBC's unaired science fiction series Day One in 2009. While originally intended to air on NBC midseason in the 2009–2010 TV season with a 13-episode season, the project became a four-episode miniseries.[9] By May 2010, it was concluded the show would likely never air.[10] She later guest-starred in Castle, Nikita, The Glades and CSI: Miami.[11]
In 2011, Gonzalo was cast as series regular in the TNT revival of Dallas,[12][13] which premiered on June 13, 2012.[14] Her character, Rebecca Sutter, was later revealed to be Pamela Rebecca Barnes, the daughter of the characters Cliff Barnes (Ken Kercheval) and Afton Cooper (Audrey Landers) from the original series.[15][16][17] The series was cancelled after three seasons in 2014.

In 2017, she met fellow Hallmark Channel actor Chris McNally when they worked together on the Hallmark TV movie The Sweetest Heart.[20] They kept their relationship a relative secret, referring only to a generic "girlfriend" or "boyfriend" when telling personal stories to the press over the following years,[20] until Gonzalo made a surprise June 2022 announcement on Instagram that the couple had just had their first child together.[21]
