    I've got a document with paragraphs like:

    This is a sentence. This is a sentence. This is a sentence. This is a sentence. Last phrase with no period

    I want to apply a character style to the last phrase at the end of the paragraph.

    This grep:

    (?<=.).*?(?=r)

    applies the style to all the sentences.

    Is there a way to style just the “Last phrase with no period”?

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Untested, but you could try this:

    [^.]+$

    i.e., any longest possible run at the end of a paragraph that does not contain a period.
