For broken sentences in HTML, I use the following search regex:

Code:

([^.”":?’'!>—…)])</p>\s+<p[^>]*>

And the replace would be:

Code:

\1

(NOTE: there needs to be a "space" character following the \1 for it to work properly)

I don't trust it enough to blindly do a "Replace All" on a whole book, but I rarely have to intervene when stepping through a document an incident at a time.
