NoMethodError running cucumber tests

I'm getting a fail whenever I try to run this cucumber test on a rails app- The 'And I click' step definition is working elsewhere, it fails every time here though! And I can't find anywhere I've used the method `start_with?'

Here's the error output:

    And I click "Add a Line Item"                            # features/step_definitions/first_test_steps.rb:17
  undefined method `start_with?' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
  ./features/step_definitions/first_test_steps.rb:18:in `/^I click "(.*?)"$/'
  features/create_quote.feature:19:in `And I click "Add a Line Item"'

And here's the code for my step definition:

When /^I click "(.*?)"$/ do |this|
 click_on(this)
end

Any ideas?

If "Add a Line Item" is link then use

first(:link, "Add a Line Item")

and if "Add a Line Item" is button then use

first(:button, "Add a Line Item")
