If I will be exporting to LaTeX, I do the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
One sentence is here.
#+latex: % a sentence that has been commented out.
The third sentence is here and should be in the same paragraph as the first.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The LaTeX directive is a LaTeX comment (% at the start) and so replaces
what would otherwise be a blank line causing a new paragraph to start.

It may not be pretty but it works just fine.

It is at least fragile. HTML export results in separate paragraphs:

<p>
One sentence is here.
</p>
<p>
The third sentence is here and should be in the same paragraph as the first.</p>

I am unsure, but "#+latex:" probably belongs to "Keywords" that are elements, so it should end a paragraph. If such interpretation is correct than either LaTeX exporter has a bug or syntax description should be justified.
