<br />'s are not soft-hyphens.... just to be clear.

Tricky... but—strictly speaking of Sigil (PCRE) here—then
possibly:
If there's only one occurrence of the <br /> tag inside a paragraph, this expression should find it (only inside p tags of the class "body-text"):
Code:
<p class="body-text">(?!</p>).*\K<br[^>]*?/>
(If there's more than one occurrence of <br /> the above expression will only match the
last one)
The following expression should match the
first occurrence (if there's more than one) of a <br /> tag inside p tags of the class "body-text".
Code:
(?U)<p class="body-text">(?!</p>).*\K<br[^>]*?/>
Leaving the "Replace" field blank when replacing should then get rid of the <br /> tags.
It's certainly not ideal, but if you have multiple <br /> tags inside the targeted paragraph (class name "body-text"), you could conceivably run one or the other of these "Replace All" expressions multiple times until the search no longer matches anything. Still quicker than stepping through each occurrence (and will ignore all other p classes), though.
